And she's now a professor at New York University, preparing secondary public school teachers.

Christine and Henry, the man at the end of her story, decided to split when she moved back to New York from California a few years ago.

She says, we knew better than to try a long-distance relationship, so we made the heartbreaking but right decision to break up when I left.

But we stayed in touch, and he's happy that this story is airing.

Sometimes you have to clear out or lose your old way of life in order to find the next chapter.

We met Gregory Pereira, our next storyteller, in a moth workshop with the College and Community Fellowship here in New York.

He told this story with us in a moth showcase that explored the justice system.

Here's Gregory Pereira live at the moth.

Gregory Pereira is now an entrepreneur and community educator.

He says this once lonely man found a new start and now has 18 grandchildren.

He says he wants his life's journey to help listeners understand that hope is possible for all.

After our break, a man gives his favorite book away and then tries desperately to find it again.

And a lifelong New Yorker has to pick up and move when the Moth Radio Hour continues.

You're listening to the Moth Radio Hour.

I'm Sarah Austin Janess.

In this hour, all stories of the lost and found.

I've always wanted to start a website where people can post single lost gloves they've found.

Like a national lost and found, but just to reunite gloves.

A glove give back.
