I was walking alone near a supermarket at 9 pm. As I was about to cross the road I remembered that I had left my wallet at home, with all my money in it. I scolded and complained to myself for being so casual about my commitments, but I had to go back home to get my wallet, as there was nothing else I could do.

I took a deep breath and started walking back to the house. Halfway there, I was hit by a violent rain. "Excellent!" I thought, "It was just what I needed to make my day more perfect," I said angrily. I started to run so I wouldn't get soaked when I heard a noise near a tree. It was the meowing of a kitten that was freezing to death, trying to protect itself from the rain at the tubular roots of the tree. I got close to it and it flinched in fear, but I caught it lovingly and tucked it under my jacket. All my anger began to pass and I realized that fate had planned for me to forget my wallet so I could help a stray kitten.
