Wow !A very strange day indeed.Imagine driving into a service station to get fuel or a new supply of slim jims,and you notice a young gentle man filling his car.You make your purchases at the counter and turn to walk back to your car when you notice the young man pulling away from his pump.As he pulls away you see on the ground a brown wallet.It was so blatantly obvious that it was the young mans,who at this time is headed towards a right turn onto the busy street....What would you do?..............Well?.....Here goes....I walk over pick up the wallet and trot over towards the young mans car who is already pulling away.So I begin hollering ,hey! hey! Halfway into the street he sees me flailing away trying to get his attention and stops.I trot over and say, "You dropped your wallet back there at the pump!"He looks at me as if it was my fault takes the wallet and drives without a thank you or even a nice gesture.Not that I was expecting a reward or something .But it seems to me if you have ever lost a wallet or purse its not so much the money that is in it, if any .,(I don't know anyone who carries any large sums of cash on them anymore.)Its everything else thats in it that matters,license,credit cards,family photos,your first condom...etc...I thought this was a good deed and falls into the good deed for the day category.However as I was walking back to my car I felt like I should have dumped the contents into the trash can ,kept the money, if any,and began admiring my slightly used new find of a wallet.This person ruined my good deed! More and more I am finding that generally speaking in the real world PEOPLE SUCK AND GOOD DEEDS DON'T MATTER! We are in a world where everyone is out to try and f$$k the next person over for a measley percentage and I guess I missed my opportunity for a good gain at someone elses stupidity expense!To me its very wrong to feel this way.I will still be a good deed doer on occasion and I still like the feeling you get when you do something nice for someone.however I believe that this society is turning good deed doers into long sufferers.Thats all for now ...T MARK the long suffering good deed doer........WHAT DO YOU THINK?????
