Good deed

On one of the days last week I had an unpleasant conversation with one of the group project teammates and afterwards was quite irritated. Later I rushed across the campus to the library with a bunch of things in my hands. I read my emails on the laptop and there were some disappointing news there as well. I looked for my weekly planner to write in some meeting, but the planner was nowhere to be found. I clearly remembered that I carried it in my hands on the way to library. Awh, the day was not going well. I ran along the whole path that I took when the planner was in my hands, but there was no sight of it anywhere. All the friends' birthday dates, all the projects due dates, all the exam times, some of the contact information - it was all gone.

I returned to the library quite upset and sad. Some time later, when I was working on the project, I got a text message on my phone: "Your planner is in *** on a desk in the back of the room". I sent a "thank you" reply and rushed to the specified room. 40 minutes of waiting until the class finishes in the room and trum-pum-pum - I got my planner back! There are good people in this world, I was sure. I texted my savior and offered to buy a cup of coffee to express my gratitude. No, we didn't fall in love and lived happily ever after :) Instead, we had a wonderful conversation over coffee and then I walked home with a warm feeling: there are good people in this world and they will help if you are in trouble. If you know this, then nothing will scare you. Well, almost nothing.
