FOUND by Leah Eustace
I was walking down the street with my children, when my daughter (age 12) noticed a red envelope tucked into the side of a bench on the edge of the sidewalk. She pulled it out and showed it to me. On the envelope, it said “This is for you. Yes you!” We opened it up and this letter is what we found inside.
I’ve been wavering between sadness and awe. The sadness comes from the loneliness expressed in the letter. I get the sense that this woman (and I’m guessing it’s a woman) could use a friend and warm hug. At the same time, how amazing to share a letter like this. I absolutely intend to pay it forward: not in exactly the same way, but with the same belief in human connectedness.
FOUND by Keith in a Wal-Mart parking lot
After shopping, my wife came back to the car and found this note on her windshield. My wife is very conscientious as a rule. She doesn’t remember parking too close to the car next to her and she knows she definitely did not “door ding” anyone.
It just goes to show you, no matter how careful you are, make extra sure to have so curdosy for other people!
