I was ready to pay for my bananas at the grocery one night, when fear seized me. My wallet was gone. I could only have left it on the G9 bus, which was now speeding in the dark to some    16    station.

The    17    moment was quickly followed by mental math. How much time and money would it cost to replace the    18    of that little wallet? The credit cards, the driver’s license, the cash, all lost to the bus.

Two hours later, back at my house, I heard a knock on the door. My husband    19    it while I was on the phone in the dining room. “Does Jennifer live here?” I heard a lady say. In my husband’s hand was my wallet, with not a penny    20   . She left before I could    21    make it to the door to offer my thanks.

After sharing the story online, I heard from someone, who    22    the lady as Erin Smith. Without    23   , I called to thank her. She said she    24    my wallet on a bus seat. She    25    that going to a stranger’s house was a    26    move, but she decided to take the chance. “If I were in that    27   , I would want someone to try to find me,” she said.

This one stranger responded beautifully to my small    28   , but she actually wasn’t the only one. Right after Erin    29    my wallet on the bus, she posted a picture of my driver’s license to an , trying to see    30    anyone knew me. No sooner did she leave my doorstep than I had emails from two women whose kids go to my son’s nursery and who recognized my face. I’ve never    31    words with those moms beyond small talk, but they wanted to help. I read that people are more divided than ever, but that’s not how the people I    32    tend to act.

   33   , I feel blessed someone had wanted to help a stranger. Erin had gone    34   what almost anyone would have done, finding my house on a bitterly cold night, and for that I was extremely    35   .
