My good deeds go un-noticed **EDIT**OMG IT's BACK!!!...

[shepgirl]

I do exactly what you do, "do unto others" is always my motto. But I can honestly say that I felt exactly like you do right now because of a few bad experiences. Then I realized that my good deeds do not go unnoticed...and neither does yours. You will be rewarded ten fold for your deeds.
I agree, what goes around, comes around and I have witnessed that also.
But being able to look at myself in a mirror is more important to me than giving up on people.
I will keep you in my thoughts and pray that someone will return your purse with everything in it.

You'll be in my prayers. Maybe the pictures, at least, will make their way back to you.

The same thing happened to me about a year ago. I put my bag down for a minute to get a box of shoes, and then walked to the register. I realized my bag was gone and went back for it, and it was gone. It had all my personal items like license and debit card and whatnot, as well as my phone and checkbook and such. Later, once the police got involved and got the security tapes, I saw it was the girl in front of me at the register who had stolen my bag. When I had noticed my bag was missing, she had even turned around and looked at me with sympathy. She was with a man and a boy that looked like her father and brother. It`s sickening what people can do, and it is so true that it`s always (well not always, per say) the "good" people that have these things happen. I`m sorry that this happened to you, and I`m crossing fingers and toes hard that you get your purse back with none of your personal effects missing.

Oh Leslie, that's horrible. Many prayers that it's all returned back to you.

Leslie I am so sorry this happened to you. I can feel the anxiety and sadness in your post and I wish I could give you a big (((hug))). Please don't let the piece of scum that took your purse take away the goodness that is you. They will reap what they sow, for sure.

FLS may have a good idea here. Most stores do have security cameras, outside and inside. Check with the store and see if they can provide any assistance for you as far as tapes, etc. My main concern would be for identity theft. I will pray that whoever took your things will just take the cash and turn everything else back in. Why do people think they have a right to other people's things? It just breaks my heart. We live in a cruel world.
