There was a story I read online the other day about a man named Mark Epple. He's from Minnesota and was recently on vacation at a ski resort in Colorado. Mark was at the airport getting ready to return home when he saw something shiny lying in the gutter. To Mark's surprise, it was a 12 karat diamond ring. The story goes on to explain that Mark was out of work and the ring was worth several years of his salary. Despite the value of the ring, Mark tracked down the owner of the ring and returned it. Initially, he wouldn't even accept a reward. Eventually, Mark accepted a stay for his family at the ring owner's vacation home for a Christmas ski holiday.
Mark stated later that he returned the ring because he wanted to teach his children a lesson, that returning the ring was the right thing to do.
I'd like to think that WE all would return the ring and the real lesson here is that WE is greater than me.
Life is full of challenges, pitfalls and pinnacles, but everything is attainable when WE work together. The power of WE can accomplish whatever WE want it to. WE can do anything!
