Laura called to tell us about the nicest thing a stranger did for her, which happened in an Ulta parking lot. 

About It's Going to Be OK

But instead of falling into the pit of despair, we’re bringing you a little OK for your day. Every weekday, we’ll bring you one okay thing to help you start, end or endure your day with the opposite of a doom scroll.

Hi, it’s Laura, and it’s going to be OK.

The nicest thing a stranger ever did for me was not only return my credit card, but also make sure there was a refund when I accidentally left it in the machine at Ulta and they were, I was charged for their transaction.

I had my six week old and my one and a half year old with me walked off with my purchases, left the card in. The cashier that was not paying attention didn’t catch it, charged the other person.

And she was nice enough to come find me in the parking lot to help me unload my kids, which God love her, and then take me in, get the refund and get everything sorted out.

As a postpartum mom with a lot on my mind, I could not have been more thankful and I appreciate her so, so much. Hope you all have a wonderful day.
