Dear Ones, does it ever happen to you? Where ever I am, it can be in any part of the world, people leave their children, pets, possessions with me. My husband insists that it happens because I smile at people and he does not. Infact he is very serious.

Anyways it’s my story and especially at airports. I can be sitting anywhere and someone will leave all their bags with me. I could be a thief!!! They leave their backpacks. One kid left everything next to me. I got so mad, I told him that he should at least not leave his passport etc. Unwillingly he carried his backpack.

Yesterday I was sitting quietly by myself, when a young man asked me if he could join me. Since it was at the airport, I said OK and then he left his two boys, 8 and 12 with me. I thought to myself, well I guess look like a grandma. The kids were happy also. Then another time a mum left her three-year-old daughter with me, while she went to the bathroom.

There is a bright side to it. Strangers have offered me coffee and not let me pay for my sandwich. Also, I do the same and I am happy with it. However, my sons are of the view that I am too friendly (meaning maybe needy) sarcastically.

Then people I hardly know have asked me to come to the hospital with them, if they are having a surgery.

Well, it happened just now. I am writing my blog at the airport and the young man sitting next to me, has left his laptop, phone, backpack and jacket for me to keep an eye on his stuff.

We love travelling and where ever we go they call us grandma and grandpa. I have even fed little kids when they are not eating in a restaurant.

I will confess that I like people, children and animals. Especially kids and animals sense it.

I have always done it and I will continue to do it, even if I am warned that the world is a bad place.
