I was having a bad day last week. I was walking in downtown Toronto, tired and peeved at everything. Then I get to this stoplight that just changed and I have to wait for it. HMF! But then this very old and wizened woman with a cane asks me to help her cross the street because it is so windy. She asks if I can hold her grocery bag and if she can hold my arm; a little bit in shock, I said yes. We start crossing and she is going really slowly, I try to speed up to make the light but she tells me to slow down or she'll fall. Finally, we reach the other side just in the nick of time and she thanks me and responds that she'll just walk alongside the building wall, putting her arm against it for support. I felt shitty, because I'd have helped her more but was in a rush. Anyhow, I realized that I and many others have it a lot better. Here was this elderly lady who should not even be outside by herself really and she wasn't complaining. Who could barely walk. I mean, I was bitchy because I had a lot of University work to do, was tired, had to commute and had to go to work later. A lot of people would kill to have those problems, including this old lady. So my point of the story is, that it's easy to lose sight of how good we really have it sometimes. When you have these moments happen to you, you feel a little bit selfish and lucky. |

Yes, absolutely. Alas human nature is not designed to work with absolute satisfaction, but with relative satisfaction. |
