"Whoa," Mark breathed, staring at the thick wad of bills he’d pulled from the wallet. He wasn't sure what to do. The world suddenly felt lighter, the weight of his worries momentarily dissolved. He found the wallet near a bus stop on a particularly rainy day.

He needed new tires for his truck, and his kids needed new school supplies. The possibilities seemed endless. He clutched the wallet tighter, a grin splitting his face.

He let out a short, surprised laugh. He felt a desire to move, to go anywhere, do anything. With a newfound spring in his step, he started to walk, the rain barely registering as he turned the corner.
