Stories of Kindness from Around the World

Little Things Mean a Lot


--by Geezer, posted Nov 8, 2019
Sometimes the little things you do mean a lot.

As an example; when my wife and I returned from the Cape in early October, I found a child's luggage tag on the floor next to the baggage carousel. It was a bit unique and had an address. So, we mailed it to the address.

Attached is the thank you card that has overwhelmed me. It reads:

"Thank you so much for being so kind as to mail me my lost luggage tag. It is very sentimental to me. The little girl who gave it to me passed away 4 years ago. She was 10 years old and wanted to see the world. The luggage tag was/is my way of taking her with me on my world travels. I really appreciate your kindness.  Sonya :-)"

This story will definitely help rest of us to perceive the things out of the box using our heart and not the brain. You did a wonderful job. Thanks for sharing.

Dear mr. & mrs. Vinneau:

Thank you so much for being so kind as to mail me my lost luggage tag. It is very sentimental to me. The little girl who gave it to me, passed away 9 years ago. She was 10 years old and wanted to see the world. The luggage tag was/is my way of taking her with me on my world travels. I really appreciate your kindness. . Sonia
