Summary:
After 60 years a man returns money he had stolen in the late 1940s
from Sears. He had stolen about 25 dollars then. He decided to pay back 60
years later. The man left an envelope with a cashier at Sears with a 100 dollar
bill inside addressing it to the manager. Inside with the money, he included a
note that explained that he had stolen the money 60 years ago and that he was
paying back.
Reflection:
I believe that if you choose the wrong a bad conscious will forever
live with you until you do the right thing. This man carried the guilt with him
after 60 years. So much time past but his conscious continued to remind him
that he had done bad. To be free of the guilt he decided to pay back. It was
until then then his conscious could be free. I believe this is true for all of
us. We will always have a guilty conscious when choosing the wrong until we do
the right thing.
