Of all the things we could ever lose, our purses or wallets have to be right up there with the worst of them. Half of our lives are contained in those little objects; including our personal identification documents, our credit cards, and sometimes even our keys. Not to mention cash!
Sometimes, we store even more valuable items in there; things which simply can't be replaced when they're lost. They might be precious photographs, or little keepsakes given to us by people who aren't around anymore. We call such things sentimental treasures, and losing a single one of them is painful.
We're living in jaded times, and so if you were unfortunate enough to lose your wallet or purse, you'd probably assume you'd never see it again. Even if you did, you'd expect all the valuables to have been removed from it. That's why this story might just warm your heart.
