Write an internal debate a person has over what to do with a rather large sum of money they found in a bank envelope. Title it "To Return, or Not to Return?" The amount could be life-changing for the person who found it, but they're facing a moral dilemma. Do not resolve the issue, just write two paragraphs: one pro-keeping the money, and one pro-returning. It should be written in first person.

To Return, or Not to Return?

Should I consider myself lucky today? I had a flat tire and pulled over to the shoulder to change it, hoping that my spare wasn't flat as well. In the tall grass on the side of the road was an envelope from People's Choice Bank, and it appeared to have something in it. When I opened it, I was shocked to find $5,000 in crisp one-hundred dollar bills! My hands trembled as I counted it again and thought about how this amount could change my fate right now: I could buy a set of four new tires and get some basic maintenance done on my car which I could then drive to the community college where I have just one more semester to complete my nursing degree. I haven't been able to pay my tuition, and I haven't been able to save it up from my part-time job because I'm barely surviving on that income as it is. This $5,000 is literally life-changing for me, and chances are that the person who lost it has simply counted it "gone" because the withdrawal ticket is dated a week ago.

Perhaps I should consider myself unlucky instead. Yes, I found 5,000 potentially life-changing dollars on the side of the road, neatly tucked into a bank envelope along with the withdrawal ticket. The thing is that it's not mine, and I'm pretty sure that if I took it to the bank along with the ticket, they'd be able to track down the transaction and the rightful owner. The chances are zero that someone just tossed this money out hoping someone in need would find it. Surely they need it, too, and it's up to me to return it, right?
