I can tell you with respect to where I live now... almost six and a half years ago, Spain was not the same as when I arrived... it's getting much worse... a lot. Because of the people... yes, because of the people. The indiscriminate entry of illegals... they generate destruction, delinquency and mistreatment of women, I feel a little insecure, unlike when I arrived. I take my precautions and go on but the reality is not the same. These people are dirtier.... they throw everything away, they are disrespectful and they think they own the world. And the list could go on and on....
The good act I saw you: a Spaniard telling a non-Spanish person not to throw rubbish on the ground, that's what the rubbish bin is for. The foreigner laughed in his face... but he had to do it... we were all watching in the street, even me.
It's easy to focus on the negative and downsides, there's so many and it just gets worse and worse, but there's some rays of sunlight now and then and it's good to call them out when we see them. If we all did that all the time it's be a better place but, of course the nuggets of gold get hidden by the piles of dirt.
I loved seeing that man claiming for the rightness and care of the world, that's great and yes... that's gold. I wish we all saw those details. Thank you!
