I was walking with a friend yesterday when I found a Xiao﹣Mi cell phone in a puddle of melted snow.I picked it up and it still worked!I started looking through the contact list and calling numbers to see if I could figure out whose phone it was.Unfortunately,only one person answered and she didn't recognized the number that I was calling.She made a comment of\trying to find out whose phone it is.\

Since that lady didn't know whose phone it was,my friend suggested that we go back to the street and the house that we found the Xiao﹣Mi phone in front of.I knocked on the door and two college age people answered.They hadn't lost their phones,but as I told them the story and mentioned some names on the contact list,the young man said that he had those names also and it must be the phone of one of their friends.Then,both of the people commented on how wonderful it was that I took the time to find the owner.I really didn't have anything to say,because in my mind,I was just doing the right thing.I never considered keeping the phone﹣it wasn't mine.I immediately tried to find the owner,because that is exactly what I would want someone to do if either I or my family members lost their phones.

Sometimes,helping others is just doing the right thing.And,it felt awesome when I found out it would get back to the owner.The best part was I didn't say who I was﹣give a name,number﹣because doing the right thing felt awesome and was more than enough for me!
