...or something like it.
anyway, i went to an indian superstore to get some shopping done. being sunday, there were alot of people and each going about their own business. i got a bit fascinated with the place so i decided to have a look around and probably get me a stuff or two.
i got into a food lane and i was behind this lady when i saw money dropped out of her pocket. iwas about to react when this guy came a long and took. i said to myself "good, i won't have call her attention anymore..."
lo and behold, the one whom i thought a good samaritan did not even had the balls to motion to the lady but instead grabbed the swab then put it in his pocket as if it was his own. believe me it was not his. damn.
he looked around - i guess trying to see if anybody saw his little deed. he saw me and i was i awe and i thought there would be some sort of conscience flowing. but no - he won't on his way. i tried to follow the lady but due to the number of people around i lost her. i went back to the place where the man took the money. we met again face to face - he wont on his way.
i did not try to make a fuss out of it. can't say i was powerless 'cause i could have done something about it. but yet i didn't. i guess that's what bugging me now. simple as it may be i did not do anything. i know i could have changed something for the day. made the space and time continuum different but i did not
there are really some situations you think that you cannot do but opt not to. i guess because of fear...because of not making a fuss...because of not caring...because of not wanting to make a difference. and because of that life is not better like we want it to be thus it is sad...
to forget...i got my self a koolaid.
