Kindness of youth

Being a retired pensioner, I found myself in some kind of a dilemma when I found that my wallet was missing, containing all cards and a little money.
I thought my wife may have picked it up by mistake but she assured me that she hadn’t. On that information I went back to the car.
A young Telstra employee then approached me and asked me if this wallet was mine, which he had picked up near my driver’s door. On verifying that it was and being very relieved, I thanked him for his honesty.
This young man lives in Warwick, and if this is what Warwick teaches its young, we have nothing to worry about. I would also like to thank his parents, as their standards showed through this act of their son, Aaron.
