I am sure you have heard of the slogan “He dodged a bullet” in terms of a disaster that came close to coming true but was averted by an act of fate.
In the case of Norman Minor, he is thankful that an honest person turned in an envelope that had $2,500 dollars inside to a police officer inside a Wal Mart Store that is located in Washington Township Pennsylvania last month.
The money that Norman had in his possession was money that was going to be used for himself and his wife Jackie to go on a vacation.
Norman when he found out that his money was missing, he was sad that his chances of going on vacation with his wife went out the window.
Washington Township Detective Jason Sims decided to use the power of social media to locate the owner of the money since the video camera inside the store recorded the honest man who decided to keep a low profile of his good deed.
Sims used Facebook to try to identify the man who dropped the envelope that had the vacation money inside so the police could return the lost money to its proper owner.
Thanks to a lady who claims that she knows Norman for a long time, the police were able to contact Norman to contact him the good news.
When Norman recovered the lost money from the police, he gave a “Thank you” to the mystery person who returned the money he lost inside of a Wal Mart.
Maybe next time Norman will have any huge amounts of money that he possess in an envelope placed inside a safe place inside his home or auto.
Carrying a large amount of cash while going shopping is a recipe for a huge heartbreak since there are only a handful of persons who will return money that was lost inside of a shopping center to the authorities.
An honest person… a good choice
Returning money that does not belong to the person who found lost the money is a great feeling since the person who lost the money needs it more than the person who found the loose loot.
I know what you mean since our desire to make easy money overshadows good judgement.
That is true since I know if I were in the shoes of the Good Samaritan, I would find out who lost the money by giving it to the authorities first since it is the right thing to do.
Good karma comes from being honest.
Good deeds never go unnoticed in this world. The guy will be rewarded not necessarily in terms of money but also the good feeling he returned happiness to the man who lost his money.
You have a good point since the knowledge that the person who lost the money was able to go on his vacation with his wife thanks to the great deed by the Good Samaritan.
Great to hear about honest people pleased to see this man could go on vacation after all
I agree with you since in many cases the people that return money they found claim that they believe in karma.
You have a good point there Witty Feeds.
carrying a large amount of cash on person is a rookie mistake
That is true since it is an invitation to have the money stolen from the possession of the person who has that kind of money.
We need more of those kind of people here on earth not only for that specific matter but also for some other good deeds like helping the people who are truly in need
You have a good point there that good deeds will inspire others to follow their example.
We should act to set an example, all of us
That is a very true statement.
There is a greatness in some people that rises beyond their circumstances.
There are some honest people in this world after all who have learned that good deeds will inspire great blessings in the future.
There are a small number of honest people who know how to recover the money. Fortunately, not all postures have died out as Dinosaurs.
Yes that is true that they are some good people who are honest left in our world today.
I think the reason is , No one adhere the commandment of God and No fear of God neither any fear of Judgment day.
When people do not respect the laws of God, the world suffers.
Yes he was very lucky to have the money returned.
You are correct since another person who saw the envelope would have taken the money for himself or herself.
This is the job of a faithful person. Great Job Honest is best policy
That is correct since many people that I know who find lost money have gone on record as saying “How does the person who lost the money feel now?”
I am pretty sure , this man will be rewarded by GOD
That is true since we do not take any material wealth with us when he pass away.
Yes, we take only 2.5 meter white cloth with us only.
