While people generally feel very happy when they got something for free, I have received lots of things free of cost. But here I would like to talk about a time when I got something for free. Actually it happens two years ago when I used to study in my senior secondary education. During that time my school organized an event in my school when the show was about to end. I noticed that there was something lying on the floor. When I picked it, that was a wallet of black leather and it was looking so expensive as well. But I didn’t open it to see the amount. Immediately afterwards I went to the stage and announced about it. When I announced about it, I came to know that it was belonged to Chief Castor who had come from a very far place. He came to the stage to collect it all. And thanked me a lot after that. He got impressed by my honesty because there was an important document in that wallet. And then he gifted me a beautiful watch to me. I received it from the cabinet minister of my city. If I talk about the venue, I received it in my school where the event was happening. I really felt proud of me as it was such a valuable item as well as I am really in need of a watch because my old watch was not working properly. All in all this was the time when I got something for free.
