I got a phonecall at work just about an hour ago.

The stranger asked me if I’ve lost my wallet.

And it stroke me that perhaps I did. I began searching the drawer but could not find it. I lost my wallet without knowing it…

The man told me where I could find him. I quickly got out of my workplace and within a few minutes I was face-to-face with the chap who was holding on to my wallet.

He told me some other guy had picked it up and left it at the shop.

I am grateful, and am counting my blessings.

My lost wallet was handled by two different person; either one of them could have just remained silent. My wallet was fully intact, with money and identification card and other cards including credit cards as well. This is perhaps something that I like about Singapore. This was not the first time I lost my wallet. I lost a card holder, containing all kinds of cards including travel concession card, university card, and so forth at a cinema. I did not realized it until I was returning home and realized that my card holder was missing. A few days later, I eventually got it back when the university contacted me and told me someone had found it and brought it to the university administration office.

I shall remind myself to be more careful with my wallet, always.
