Once upon a time, there were two siblings named Mary and Keith. One day, they
found a lost handphone at a cafe they were eating at. Keith, who had always
wanted a phone, immediately wanted to keep it for himself. But Mary reminded him
that the phone wasn't theirs, and they needed to find the owner. Keith was
initially hesitant, but as time passed, he started feeling guilty. He knew it
wasn't right to keep something that didn't belong to him. He couldn't sleep well
at night and decided to do the right thing. He called the phone's owner and
arranged to meet her to return it.
When the owner arrived, she was ecstatic to have her phone back. Keith felt
relieved and happy that he did the right thing. He learned that honesty is
always the best policy, and doing the right thing pays off in the end.
From that day on, Keith became more honest and always tried to do what was
right, even if it was difficult. He knew that being truthful and having
integrity was more important than any material possessions.
In conclusion, honesty is an essential value that we should all practice in
our daily lives. It is a crucial aspect of building trust and respect with those
around us. Being honest may not always be easy, but it is always the right thing
to do. As Keith learned, honesty pays off, and it is a virtue that we should all
strive to have. |
