A gentleman
was passing through a road where a beggar and a homeless man was staying when
his wallet, containing some money and other valuables, fell. He didn't know
that the wallet had fallen.
The homeless man saw the wallet but before he could
ran to the man and gave him his wallet, he had missed him. So, he went to the
police and made a report. With the help of some information found in the
wallet, they owner was located and presented with his wallet.
He was astonished
because he don't even know that he had lost his wallet. The police told him
that the man who found and returned his wallet was homeless and a beggar, he
requested to see the man and arrangement was made towards that end.
The day came
for them to see.
After seeing the homeless man, he presented him with apartment
and job. Now, the one-time beggar and homeless man owns a house and a job. His
kindness paid him big time! I had similar experience.
Earlier this
year, January precisely, when I was in the job market, seriously looking for a
job, while inside a commercial bus, I saw the wallet of a man on a bike fell
down. He didn't know. So, the stopped the bus, I ran and picked up the wallet
because am going to return it. The wallet contains ID, receipts, two ATM card
(Zenith's and Fidelity's) and 775 Nigerian Naira. From that time till now, I've
made every effort to return it but all to no avail.
I've called
almost all the numbers on the receipts to figure out if the people know the
man, one Emmanuel Okoro but no positive
result. I've also called Fidelity bank through their toll free line to help me
connect the man so he can have his wallet but no positive result also. I'm
still with the wallet up till this moment.
People who
indulge in evil, also reap the consequences of their actions which are backed
with evil intentions. That’s life, whatever you do to others is what will be
done to you. Even the bible noted about that in specific areas especially
when it mentioned –
At this, one of Jesus’ companions drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his ear. “Put your sword back in its place, Jesus said to him. “For all who draw the sword will die by the sword. – Matthew 26:52
My point: Do the right thing whether or not
you're appreciated or recognized because every action has a reward. The reward
can be good or bad depending on your action. One thing you need to know is
this: the reward of every action is always greater than the action itself. Do
the right thing with the consciousness that every action has a reward or
consequences.
