What should I do? I stole a lightbulb.
Why would you steal a lightbulb?
They were there and I really need a lightbulb
You should have paid for it. It is wrong to steal, even something small like a lightbulb.
I stole the lightbulb because my wallet was empty.
It's unfortunate that you were unable to afford a light bulb, but that doesn't make it okay to steal it. Even something as small as a light bulb can land you in jail. It's best next time to borrow a few dollars for something so small.
