My Shocking Restoration of Faith in Human Race
I am pretty sure after reading the title you are going like “Whaaat?”. In order to explain the title, and for you to understand my state of mind, I need to first tell you about an event that occurred few years back.
Few years ago I used to go to a gym next to my office and I would keep my clothes and bag in the gym locker, like everyone else. Also, like everyone else, I would leave my sneakers and socks under the benches in front of the lockers while going for shower. One night when I came back from the shower, my sneakers were gone. I know what you are thinking. Someone must have worn it by mistake. There are four reasons why that is very unlikely.

Someone had stolen my sneakers AND my socks when I was in the shower. I hope you will not judge me if I told you that this incident had inadvertently caused me to loose faith in the Human Race.
Now, It does not mean that I think people are not decent. I mean, I still believe people have basic decency, like not cut you in line or apologize if they bump into you, but when no one is looking, people cannot be trusted.

It also made me realize that I should have invited them in and given her something, like a candy bar, at least, as a gesture of gratitude. No sooner had I thought this, than my wife gave me a bewildered look with her wallet in my hand and when I told her what the girl said she immediately told me why did I let them go. I don 't really know. I definitely did not want to offer cash as I truly felt it would insult them and I did not want them to think I doubted their motives for returning it. However, I don 't know why I did not invite them. From the introspection that I have been doing, I can only come up with a few reasons which could explain my shameful
