THE HERALD OF CHRISTIAN SCIENCE—SHORTWAVE

The day I lost my wallet...

Cornelia Schacht with contributions from Rita Klintwort de Almeida

In this excerpt from the German Edition of The Herald of Christian Science—Shortwave, Cornelia Schacht speaks with Rita Klintwort de Almeida.

Rita Klintwort de Almedia: Today, when situations seem very difficult or almost impossible to solve, I often think back to an experience I had when I was about sixteen. I was living with my parents in a little harbor town called Itajai in Brazil. Two afternoons a week I went to English classes in the center of town.

One day my father gave me a large sum of money to take with me so I could buy a particular item for him. I carefully put the money away in my wallet. When the class was over, I went to make the purchase. I didn't find the item, however, so I strolled on home. But when I got there, I discovered that I had lost my wallet.
