Sometimes Fate Intervenes

Do you ever listen to the news or hear a story that just makes you stop and believe there is still good in the world? 


I heard one such story just the other day (Friday to be precise) on the news. It was a story about a bride from Kent, Washington who had her wedding dress stolen out of her car the morning of her wedding. She called 911 to report it stolen and that's when a miracle happened... the 911 operator offered her the use of her dress. The dress through a series of circumstances made it from the 911 operator to the bride in time for the wedding to go off without a hitch. Read more about this incredible story here or here.

The beginning of this story almost moved me to tears. The idea that someone would steal a wedding dress out of a women's car when she is clearly getting ready to go to the church is just appalling to me. Who would do such a thing? It's despicable! That someone was kind enough to go that extra mile to help this bride out of an unthinkable situation is so impressive. It's like a Hallmark movie waiting to happen. I just pray that if a situation like this were ever presented to me that I would react in the best possible way and go that extra mile to make someones day magical (maybe it's the Disney in me).

Happy Travels!

    1. That was my thought too. With so much negative going on in the world it's always nice to see the news reporting on something positive.
