Lost (and Found)

Since yes­ter­day after­noon, I’ve been freak­ing out because the office dig­i­tal cam­era came up miss­ing. I thought, per­haps, that I had sim­ply mis­placed it some­where. I thor­oughly checked my desk and my lap­top bag — no dice. I went home, checked all of the usual loca­tions that I tend to place items — no dice.

Fast for­ward to this morn­ing… I’m look­ing every­where in the office for the cam­era. I’m look­ing under my desk, under papers, in draw­ers, on shelves. It’s nowhere to be found. Then, the unthink­able hap­pens… my per­sonal cam­era is miss­ing as well.

Coin­ci­dence? I dunno. Imme­di­ately, thoughts start rac­ing through my head… ‘Am I this absent-minded that I have mis­placed two cam­eras in such a short period of time?’, ‘Did some­one steal them?’, ‘Did some­one sim­ply take them with­out ask­ing?’ I start ask­ing cowork­ers if they had seen either cam­era — no dice. They’re as astounded as I am. After a lit­tle bit of detec­tive work, we deter­mined that it’s highly likely that some­one our office had been try­ing to help came into our office and took them.

Am I mad? Not any more. Am I dis­ap­pointed? Yeah. It’s only ‘stuff’, and it can (and was) replaced.

After pray­ing about it, I’ve dis­cov­ered in myself, that I take for granted all that I have, and I leave it out in the open for all to see… That’s pretty much like invit­ing some­one to per­ma­nently bor­rowsteal from you.
