My good deed for the day!
On my way home from work, I found a wallet on the ground. There were no bills in it, but strangely, the coins were there.Ahead of me were two people who were doing some gardening, so I walked up to them, and asked if it was their wallet. It wasn't, but one of them suggested that I looked at the cards in the wallet, to see if I could find some form of ID and an address. As luck would have it, the address were there, so I looked it up on Google Maps, and then I set off to return the lost property.
40 minutes later, I arrived at the house. I rang the door, and waited a bit. I was thinking about leaving it with the neighbor, but before I could do that, the door opened. "Hello. I have found a wallet!".. The look on the guys face was pure relief! He thanked me, invited me inside and then he went through the wallet, to see if anything was missing. Apart from the bills, everything was there. "You need a finders fee", was his immediate reaction. I told him that it wasn't required, but he insisted. I had no other say on the matter, so off we went to the bank. He withdrew some money, and gave them to me, with a "thank you so much!" and a smile! We then went our separate ways, and I felt really good about it!

Tumbs up...each time you do a good deed every day, it always comes back to you three times...
Good job Philipsen. Honesty is the best policy.
