Karma

I had an interesting experience today that has me in a pretty reflective mood. I was in the grocery store doing some shopping and I saw a wad of bills laying on the floor in the aisle. I reached down and picked it up, there were 3-4 $5 bills and a receipt for birthday stuff from the Dollar Store, no name. I quickly had that little discussion with myself of what the "right" thing to do was. A couple of months ago I found a $100 bill at the checkout stand in Lin's and turned it in (JSYK). I put the new found money in my coupon envelope and finished my shopping. I didn't see anyone frantically looking for something they'd lost. Anyway, on the way out of the store I just couldn't do it, so I took it to the customer service desk and handed it over. Here's where the Karma comes in....

On my way home I got to see one of the most incredible sites, ever. I saw a mom antelope with 2 (count em 2) brand new babies. The mom was laying down in the grass and the 2 little wobbly babies were just hanging out by her. I bet every other person that drove down that road today totally missed the miracle, but I saw it. In fact I went back and watched for a few minutes. I had my camera but didn't want to disturb them. I have to tell you, it brought me to tears. I feel rewarded for doing the right thing. Rewarded in a way that is special and unique to me. I love babies and I am mesmerized by their miracle of life, it is humbling to me to be in the presence of something that has just left the presence of God, deep, I know....
