Today I came accross an E-Mail of a newsletter and I was very much touched to read about a homeless man from Arizona. He was unemplyed. Though he was a driver, he had lost his licence.He was sleeping in a church based homeless shelter Once at a local light- rail station he found $3000. But instead of keeping it he returned it to the owner. When the the college student thanked him he felt good and that action changed his life. He collected a donation about $10,000. Hed did not waste that money and today he has hit the popularity tag for good works for the homeless. Today we hear about so much of dishonesty and cheating, these acts surprise us. There are people, though living in utter poverty, yet so much honest.It is not the money that he found, nor the donation he received but the goodness of that college student of thanking and smiling at him, changed his attitude towards life. Today he has risen high out of nothing. The Divine Providence visited him and he made good use of it. A kind jesture perhaps you have shown it with deep acknowledgement or merely our of spontanious act, but it is able to change upside a destiny or a whole life style. Often we do not trust the strangers. We are very much scared of strangers and with evident reason. But there is an exception too.

Great deed by Hed,though in now a days people are not as honest as it is.But it is not impossible,yet in the world there are a lot of people alive who are dealing their life with honesty.So salute to Hed and salute to these people.
