Magical pocket

A girl was sad as she walked down the road. While walking, she bumped into a stranger. 'Hello, may I talk to you?' he said.
She said'Sure.'
'You seem pretty sad. Do you need anything?'
'I need money to survive.'
'Well, I can't give you money, but I can give you any object you want.'
'I've never thought of any,'
'Here, I'll give you something. Are you okay with it?'
She nodded. He pulled something out of his pocket—a gold bar—and said, 'You can sell the gold bar for money.' The girl felt delighted and thanked him as he moved forward.

He saw a boy sitting on a bench and approached him. 'Hello, may I talk to you?'
'Yeah. You look upset. Is there anything you need?'
'My classmates have new clothes and shoes, but I don't have any.'
'I think I know what you need.'
He pulled out a pair of shoes from his pocket and said, 'Listen, boy. You don't need fancy things to be with people. Take this and be thankful for what you have.'
The boy gave the brightest smile and said, 'Thank you, Mister. I will remember it.' He continued walking.

He spotted a lady in the road, with no one buying her cookies. He pulled out an expensive necklace and gave it to her.
He said 'I want to take all of the cookies, and in exchange, I want to give you this necklace.'
She was still in shock, profusely looking at the necklace. He took all of the cookies. As he left, the woman thanked him again and again.

Next, he saw a man crying profoundly.
He said 'Hello, may I help you?'
The man said, 'I have no money, so I don't know how I can live on a daily basis.'
'Do you have any job or hobby that you are good at?'
'I used to paint.' 'Why did you stop?'
'I needed to get a job to earn money. There was no guarantee for me that I could do painting. Moreover, I don't—' 'Never stop chasing your dreams.' He pulled out a package of drawing equipment and gave it to him. Happy tears started rolling into the man's eyes."
