HONESTY IS THE FIRST CHAPTER IN THE BOOK OF WISDOM*


One day last week, as Chuck and I exited the Subway in Park City, a man approached us as we opened the doors to the truck and inquired as to whether we had lost an iPhone. It seems that he had found one in the snow beside the driver's side of our truck. "Are you Chuck Ellis?" he wanted to know. He had called several number, but had not been able to contact any one by the time we arrived. How many of us would have hung around until possibly the owner of one of the nearby cars returned? We were and are incrediably grateful to this honest and kind man.

  1. I love that kind of honesty. You don't even know how miserable you would be because you haven't missed your phone yet. Very cool.
