Yesterday was a great day until the very end of it, when I lost my bank card at the bank, in the machine. Well, forgot it there is more accurate. I don`t know what I was thinking but it was incredibly dumb. Anyhow, before I knew I forgot my card, I had to get some groceries. I gave a man a quarter for his cart, because he was searching in his pockets with little luck. He asked if I was sure, to which I responded, `Yes, I do something nice for someone every day.`` He grunted and nodded and that was that. So much for a thanks or even a smile.
Today I left my seat on the bus for a lady in a wheel chair. I lifted the seats for her and helped her guide herself into the space because she was visually impaired. She didn`t say thank you either, but maybe she has people help her like this often. I don`t know.
One more thing that may be relevant. I called the bank today to check the balance in my account, because I left access to all our money for whoever might like to take it. I was pleasantly surprised that no one withdrew any money after my last transaction. As much as I would like to believe otherwise, the world is full of people who want to take advantage of those situations. Maybe it`s karma, maybe not, but I did feel slightly justified in trying to be so nice to people. That said, no one called me to say they had my card......
