Answer
You are only an honest person, if you are honest when no one is watching.brDo all you can to get the wallet and all of its contents back to the owner. After all they are the owner. If you keep what is not yours you are stealing. That would make you a thief, Greedy, amp dishonest. In every transaction with people you will bring the knowlege that you could cheet them. The person you are dealing with will have a feeling not to trust you. Something in you will tell them. brbrbrNo if you do all you can to get the wallet and all of its contents back to its owner. You are an honest person. You are honest because you do what is honest when noone is watching. br. is a lot of money, Anyone would think wow what could I do with that? Or the one who lost it, How can I do without it?brbrI have taken the attitude whenever I find something whick can be returned or if an error is made in my favor, Great! I get to do the right thing. It surprised people sometimes. But I know that I am honest and That I am capable of doing the right thing when noone is watching.brbrMany times in my family, Wallets, Purses, a Money bag for a bank deposit, have all been returned to us with the money inside.brbrKeeping the . Would cost you more than you could afford. It will cost you something that you couldnt buy with times that amount.brbrGiveing it back will give you something that you couldntt get with times that amount. Dont cheat yourself out of your self respect and persnal strength of charactor. Besides, It is a Sin to Steal and keeping something that is not yours is Stealing.brbrGod Bless Uou,
