"In giving you are throwing a bridge across the chasm of your solitude." --Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
Empty Wallet, Full Hearts
"It seemed to be an ordinary crazy busy Saturday at the restaurant I work in. Then, all of a sudden, all the staff started turning the kitchen upside down, going through the garbage, looking and looking for something. As it turned out, a fellow server had lost her wallet full of money from the day. It was really moving to see so many people (including the caring management team) taking the time to help this girl. She was beside herself in tears." ... So begins this real-life story of how friends and strangers came together in generosity all because of a lost wallet.
