Looking Out for Each Other

--by Purvi, posted May 14, 2008

I want to share an incident that happened to me today and want to post this story as a "Thank You" token to the gentleman who helped me.

I am a mother of two small kids, working full time and on top of trying to manage our retail business. In short, I am always running around trying to keep our life organized and get everything done on time.

Today my son had a luncheon program at school and I had to take beverages from home for the event. As usual, I was running late and went to the nearest Kroger to pick up some juice. I was running around in such a hurry that I forgot my purse in the shopping basket as I was leaving the store. My purse had everything you can imagine inside including my cell phone, camera, kids' social security cards, driving license, etc and I had no track of what I actually had lost in my purse.

When I reached the school and realized that my purse was missing, I rushed back to the store to look for it. I checked all the baskets and did everything I could to find my purse. Suddenly I realized that maybe I should call my cell phone because I knew it was definitely inside. I called the phone and a gentleman picked up. He told me he had found my purse and called my home. This kind gentleman then came all the way back to the store to return my purse.

It reminded me of how just yesterday, at work, one of my colleague's was in deep financial trouble and I had helped her out in my own little way. Today, someone was there for me to help me out by returning my valuables.

Thanks a lot Bryan.
