Segacs's World I Know

Ruti at Ki Yachol Nuchal has a great post filled with anecdotes of random acts of kindness that fly in the face of the stereotype of the “rude Israeli”.

My favourite: “A teenager’s wallet disappears. Nine months later, it is returned, with ID and 100 shekels intact. Exactly as he lost it.”

Almost the exact same thing happened to my sister when she traveled to Israel a number of years ago. She’d accidentally left/lost her purse somewhere. It was returned intact, with a note, by international parcel mail, almost a year later. Everything was still there, including the contents of her wallet.

Yes, random acts of kindness do exist. Pay it forward.
