Dear Biyi downloaded the picture for us =)..................................
Back to the good karma thing. The cashier at CK departmental store in Chinatown returned me $1 more than he should when I paid for my toiletries. I had every intention to pocket the extra change but my conscience got the better of me. I walked all the way back and even bothered to queue up just to return that $1 change.
As I walked to the bus stop and even got up bus 851, I realised the cashier made a mistake and I was charged an extra $5 for my purchase as he scanned the more expensive item twice!
!@#$ I got down the bus and walk back to the store to rectify the mistake. (It was a short walk and thank goodness I had bus concession) I managed to get back my $5 from him.
I though to myself, if I had decided to pocket the $1 of extra change, I would be so eaten by my own conscience that I wouldn't have realised the OTHER more costly mistake that the cashier has made. It's really Xie Men, cos I was thinking to myself after I returned him the $1 change that I will receive good karma very soon. And true enough, my good karma came back making double check my receipt which led me to realising the error. Hee hee.. So I got back my $5 in exchange for $1.. Good deal..
Yeah so good deeds do begets good karma.. Live with a clear conscience ok?
