 yesterday i saw seomthing that had me thinking all day yesterday and today. i was on my bus to work when we stopped at a school bus stop. a couple students got on and nothing much happened out of the ordinary. to set some context, there was a homeless guy sleeping in the far corner of the bus like the very back corner of the bus. as the bus was already fairly packed, a student had to sit next to him. this is when he did something that has stayed on my mind. he reached into his backpack, took a granola bar, and put it in the homeless guys backpack he was sleeping on. it doesnt seem like much but to me it seemed like everything. where did that go? where did basic human kindness and empathy go? now it just seems like people are only nice to beenfit themselves or even purposfully hurting others. i dont know how or why this has been a trend but i hate it. why has being rude to one another become such a trend? we come into this world screaming and crying, not aware of whats happening and our parents before us the same and their parents the same. no one knows what they're doing, so why not just be nice to each other for the (possibly) limited amount of time we have on this planet? is it that hard to be a good person?
