Homeless Man Returns Diamond Engagement Ring; he's Rewarded With Over $180,000 by GraceBestowed(f): 10:37pm On Mar 14, 2013 |
An internet campaign to raise money for a homeless man who returned a diamond engagement ring to a woman after it fell into his cup has so far raised over $175,000. I was, personally, touched whilst reading this story! That ring cost nowhere near the amount of money he's going to be blessed with, everybody wins!! 'Mago-Mago' is never the way, there's nothing wack about being honest!! (^_^) 20 Likes |

Being honest should have been a normal thing. But in this era it has to be rewarded because trust is now so rare to find. God bless the man. I hope many others learn from his experience. 10 Likes |

He's a good man, and the ring owner has already raised over 100k dollars for him. Saw the news last month on CNN |

Thats honor dignity and humanitarian heart combined. This is why I get furious when someone tells me that they steal, engage in prostitution or other social vices because of poverty! He has nothing, yet he didn't steal. We all have moral values which we can decide to bend to suit our needs! Imagine people stealing N18million and saying police should release them because they earn N12,000 and politicians steal too. That's our case scenario! Thumb up man, you are to be celebrated! 2 Likes |

I read this story not too long ago, and it, literally, brought tears to my eyes! It is true, we live in a world where we've had to seek solace in disbelief, and doubting others, so this dude right here deserves what he's getting! Yes, the news is old, but the moral of the story is timeless!! Plus it's not everyone that watches (or reads) US news regularly. 4 Likes |

Life is a gamble. U just don't know when and how u gonna hit it. Everybody is just trying his best, so that he won't be counted lazy. D fact is, we all gonna be rich. Our level of patience and recognizing opportunities when we think they are not is our best bet for success |
