We got a hotel room and we're going to the park early in the morning. I was with 2 couples and they started getting intimate and it really made me hurt thinking about my boyfriend and I decided they deserved some privacy so I took a little money and drove around till I found a fast food restaurant. The drive through was shut down and so I went in. When I came out I had locked my keys in the car. I had a couple dollars on me at best. I told the people in the restaurant and they said "sorry, nothing we can do". I couldn't remember the name of the hotel or our room number. I called home and my mother went to Reno without telling me so no answer. I tried to call friends. I should have called the police but I was 17 and sobbing hysterically and by this time forgot what direction the hotel was in or how to even get back to it. I made frantic phone calls for hours as I sobbed. A lady came out and asked me what was wrong. I told her and described the hotel and she knew where it was and drove me there. The relief I felt when getting back to my friends was unbelievable. I asked her "why did you help me" she said "because I'm a Christian and that is what we do". I'm not religious but I will always remember her face and her kindness. I consider her an earthly angel and I'm grateful she came to my rescue that night.

Wow, that's a really touching story! What a nice lady! She truly was an angel! I wish that more people were like her! The world would be a much better, safer, and better place if more people were like her.
A few times I was stressed out or in a hurry so I left my wallet or purse out in public. One time that happened with a phone too. All those times different kind honest strangers let me know about that. I had a lot of cash in my wallet at the time, so the fact that it was returned to me with everything there said a lot about that person and how honest and kind they are-
I hope that her good karma got returned to her in spades! I try to make small donations here and there and be nice to people hoping that my good karma will come back to me. It normally does. I hope that those bad people who do bad things will have bad things happen to them eventually. I truly hope that what comes around goes around is actually true.
