DOING A GOOD DEED - THE LOST LICENSE
Whilst walking from university on my way home to Liberty Park I stumbled across a drivers licence which was sitting on the pavement on Woodhouse Square. I decided to pick this up and firstly see who the identification belonged too.
After doing so and recognising that the driver license belonged to a female of a similar age to me who was from Oldham near Manchester I decided to take the drivers license home with me. Once getting home my initial thoughts were to located the nearest police station and hand the license in there. However after being in possession of the license I thought that the girl of whom the license belonged to would probably be at university in Leeds and be in frantic panic of losing her license.
So instead of handing the license into the police I thought it would be a better option to post the license to her in the post to her home address- that way I would be at piece of mind that the license would be safely returned to the right person and so that she wouldn't have to play goose-chase around Leeds to find the police station to pick it up from.
Once doing so and posting the drivers license back to the girls house along with a little note which just addressed where I found the license and the day in which I found it along with just my name I received a lovely message back from the girl via Facebook messaging that simply thank'ed me for being kind enough to post license back her home address.
A simple yet good deed that left me with a warm feeling inside and that left that girl happy to have received her lost license.
