Note: I did a much needed friends cut today. If you were cut, don't take it personally. Either you were inactive, never commented, or I just skipped over your entries. Who knows, maybe one day we'll meet again and things'll be different, but... for now, that's what I needed to do.

I had the biggest scare of my life today. @__@ My wallet fell out of my pocket when I rode to work today! My wallet... with my debit card inside. I only realized this happened AFTER I clocked in, so I couldn't try to find it until I went on lunch.

So I rode home, looking all around as I did, bracing myself for the need to cancel my debit card... only to find out that some amazing soul picked it up, saw the address on my ID card, and returned it.

Holy shit. I wanted to cry tears of joy. After a really shitty shift, finding that there IS a good person out there... my faith in humanity has been restored. Thank you, stranger. ♥

ROFLCOPS I'm surprised I wasn't cut!! ;^; I'm such a shitty friend, but I'll try harder.

;__; Eeee, that's so good to hear!! I'm always losing my stuff so it's nice to know people out there are nice enough to return things! I know I'm not a good enough person to do something like that out of sheer kindness. .-. WORLD NEEDS MOAR NICE PEOPLE.

Ahaha, well, I was exaggerating a little when I said that it wasn't personal. xD I really like reading your entries, so I won't cut you, even with the lack of comments. And it's not like I'm a great commenter, either. o.O

You know, before I think I would've been dishonest, but after today I'm pretty sure that I'll always return things like that now. :) Because the sheer despair I felt at the thought of it being lost and someone losing it... well, I don't want to inflict that onto another person, you know?

...and someone using my debit card, I mean. xD *facepalm* Dunno what happened there. I plead temporary stupidity.

XD; Oh, haha. I'm glad then!! :D I like having you on my flist even though I comment, like, once a year, so I'd be pretty bummed if I got cut. And you comment just fine!! More than I do I bet! ♥

:D Me too. I mean, if there's just one person in the world doing that for everyone, imagine how nice it'll be if there are two or even two hundred who do it! Spreading kindness seems like such a great thing now, even with something so simple as returning a wallet.

I'm glad to hear that, too! I'm always afraid my posts are boring. .___. And I'd be pretty bummed if you cut me, too. :(

Yeah. I'm really moved by what this person did. It's suddenly really, really unappealing to me to do something like keep a wallet. I want to follow this stranger's example and become a nicer person. :)
