The bouquet above is for a kind stranger I never met.
A few years ago, I received a call, the Friday before Labor Day Weekend. It was my bank calling, letting me know that my ATM card was available for pick-up. Upon hearing this, I searched my purse, wallet, and pockets because I was certain I had the card in my possession.
Unfortunately, I didn’t.
According to the customer service representive, someone found my ATM Card in the machine and dropped it off.
To this day, I am still astounded by the goodness displayed in that one person. They could have done so many things with that card since it also acts as a debit card, but they didn’t. They could have shredded it or placed in the mail as we’re directed to do. Instead, they chose to drive approximately two miles away, park their car, and enter a bank in an effort to help me out, a complete stranger.
How special. For them and for me.
I’ve always wanted to thank that person, whomever they are. Not just for returning my card, but for helping me remember that everyone isn’t selfish, self-centered, or out for their own personal gain. Some people, probably most people, believe in doing the right thing and contributing goodness to the world.
Just like my fond memory, an Adrian woman is still inspired by an act of kindness she received years ago. To read her story, please click on the link below.
