It's something they will never forget. It's a deed everyone should be proud of doing. I found alot of pride for doing it even if she hadn't said "thank you."
I bet you went home with a smile on your face thinking of what you had done for the woman and how she would have felt about it.

I did. And i still smile when I think of it. My only hope is that one day she will have the chance to help someone and will take it. And then that person will help the next. If everyone did this then the world would be much better. Not perfect, but better.
 
Same thing has happened with me. At college, this girl passed by me as I was waiting for my class to start. She dropped her class schedule and it was the first day of classes lol. I wasnt sure who it was exactly. I went up to this one girl who I thought it was and gave her her schedule lol. That woulda sucked if she couldnt get to class. Also last semester, there were these group up people anext to me. They left that area and went outside. One of the girls left her keys right in the open. She had like 10 diff keys loool. So im like omg she forget her keys. so i went to give it to her. I know i wouldnt want that to be me. Its pretty sad if people were to be shocked. It means people dont see much of this stuff, im guessing lol.
 
When I was wee high, my mum use to tell me, that if you see some money outside on the floor not to pick it up (I am not talking about malls or anything) even though no one has come back yet to look for it, incase the person who lost it comes back looking for it.

I recently read an article about a muslim cab driver in new york giving back diamonds he found in his cab. Out of curiosity I did a search of taxi drivers returning valuable items. All 4 instances I found, the taxi driver was Muslim!!

brother, you are giving wrong message by such title "Muslims show Americans honesty."
there are americans that are muslims and that muslim cabbie that show honesty was also an american. why creating strange gaps?

Alhamdulilah, that cabbie was honest as per the islamic teaching and we should be proud of it that he gave a good image of the religion Islam which is usually wrongly portrayed by most of our own people (by not practising it) and anti-islam (media etc) usually waiting for it exploit such incidents/cases.

that cabbie's honesty is a lesson for all of us.
I hope you understand. :)
