Because sometimes, it’s easier to forget than to follow them.  This past week, the following happened: I found an LRT card on the ground while waiting for a trike. I looked around and found the owner. While I was in Matteo, someone left their wallet on the table of my computer unit. It had more than a 1000 bucks in it but I took it to the guard and left it with him. God knows how tempted I was to not do the right thing. Imagine my savings! But whatever the reason why I decided to be good (The Golden Rule, Karma, Fear, etc.), I’m glad I didn’t do it. I doubt my personality is strong enough to take the guilt. Not to mention, it’s such an ego-booster knowing that I have strong self-control haha!
