thats great......

When I lose money I say the same thing "please let someone who really needs it, find it".

You have a good heart.

We need more people in the world like this....

So true...many, many more...

yes...they still exist. I am happy for you!

I guess the average Joe can also be the honest Joe....

Tks guys I am ashamed to say I was shocked to get it back. But so happy to know Joe hendren is one honest guy in this town.My faith in human kind is renewed.

I was visiting the seaside at a festival, while taking a rest from business a few years back, when I lost my purse. I had photos in it but no address and also had £700 in it as well, payment for some work I had done. I didn't discover the loss until I got home later that night.

I asked around but no luck. Then a few days later my sister phoned and said that a local hotel manager had phoned her, knowing that she was my sister, and asking her to pass on the message that someone had handed in my purse to them and wanted no reward.

I went there and picked it up and not one penny was missing. I would have loved to have thanked them but no one knew who the person was.

when I was moved to Calgary, years ago, I was on nearly out of money and no job. I decided to cheer myself up with a day of skiing,. Stopping at one of the bars, half way down the mountain,I gave the bar tender a 20.00 for my tab. She gave me change for a 100.00 I was quite happy about this. I sat for a while, thinking of my predicament and how this extra cash would help me.
Having worked in the bars, the thought of this girl having to pay for it at the end of the day, it placed great great strain on my charachter. I knew I had no place to stay and didn't know what I would be eating tomorrow. I wasn't even sure if I had enough gas to get out of the parking lot. The thought of having to live with myself after committing this terrible act was to great. I quickly returned the money and got a kiss for it. I was walking on air the rest of the day. I do believe that honesty is the best policy and the only way to treat your fellow human being.
