Norwegian Teens Show True Character

It's not always easy to do the right thing, but for two teens in Norway their decision was apparently very easy. Last Wednesday two teens from Norway found 467,200 kroner ($81,500) left in a bag on a train by an elderly passenger. Bendik (16), one of the teens, said, "When I opened the bag, the first thing I saw were these wads and wads of bills." "My first thought was to call the police." The boys were able to find the owner's passport also in the bag so that he could be identified when the contacted authorities.

Wow, what a true display of character. A bag full of money and they don't take a single cent. If you found a bag full of money do you think it would be easy for you to turn it over to the authorities without any guaranteed any reward? I think all of us would know the right thing to do but choosing to do it without a second thought? These boys easily could have took the money and run, but they didn't and for that I applaud them.
