One day, while I was working at a fast food restaurant, something unexpected happened. A lady left her fancy Louis Vuitton bag on the table. Without a second thought, I picked it up and placed it in the lost and found. I didn’t even take a peek inside, as it’s not something I usually do.

Time flew by, and after a whole month, my manager approached me. “Hey,” he said, “It’s been a month. Do you still want that bag?” Surprised, I replied, “Yes, I do.” I went to the storage area to retrieve it, feeling a mix of curiosity and excitement.

I finally opened the bag, and to my surprise, there was nothing inside except for a piece of paper. Curiosity got the better of me, and I unfolded the paper to reveal a receipt for the bag. The receipt had a message written on it that caught me off guard. It said, “To the girl who needed a new purse during the holidays.” It seemed like the lady had planned to do this all along.

As I looked closely at the receipt, I couldn’t believe my eyes. The bag cost a whopping $1700! It was a luxury item that I could have never afforded on my own. In that moment, I realized how fortunate I was to have found that bag.

I carefully packed my belongings into the bag, and took it home with me. It became more than just a fashionable accessory; it became a symbol of my humble beginnings and a reminder of the kindness that exists in the world.

That bag played a significant role in my life. It helped me appear more presentable during job interviews and gave me a boost of confidence. Even to this day, I still have the bag. It serves as a reminder of those humble days when I didn’t have much, and it motivates me to give back to others in any way I can.
