Dear friends, I would like to share with you an interesting incident which happened on my 12th birthday.
My dad was returning from office with a gloomy face with my cake for my birthday. He somehow tried to hide his frustration on something but surely me and mom caught the expressions. When we asked constantly he replied that he has lost his wallet. It contained all credit, debit cards, important documents, travel tickets, driving license, office id and many more such important things. We sympathized and he started to pretend in normal way.
wo days after the incident we received a parcel through the post office. We found all the important belongings in the wallet that was lost/robbed. And a very beautiful note written in english:
Dear Sir,
I am taking away the cash money from the wallet which was 523 USD in exact. But I am returning you your valuables which are of no value to me..!
Thanking you,
Your well wisher
From neighbourhood
This made us all laugh. Though we lost huge cash as 500 usd was of big value some 15 years back.But we were happy as we got all other valuables..!

Well, at least the thief had a big heart and good conscience. Most people would just throw away the personal belongings. Once I remember my purse was picked in the bus. There was little money in it and losing that was not a big deal but the purse also had my son’s picture which I valued a lot. Everytime I thought of that thief tearing my son’s photograph, I felt very mad and depressed. So now, I don’t keep any personal photographs in my purse.

Hey that is really a sad moment. But come on cheer up you can always have a second photograph.! Isnt it. But the feeling of getting away from some valued valuable such as yours is very aching..Ouch. But life says move on so we move.! Right.
Atleast i must agree that the thief had good conscience otherwise he would have not returned me those valuables. I really thanked him/her or anyone who gave them an inspiration to atleast return the valuables. But then a thought comes to our mind if he has good conscience why is he stealing things.!
Or may be he found that wallet and not steal but still he hadmoderately bad conscience as he stole money but good conscience as he returned valuable.Lol
I am speaking like an internal auditor..!
