I’m sorry you had to see that and get smacked in the awareness yet again by the creeping, metastasizing phenomenon that is disconnected, self-centered humanity. I’m glad you were there like a baseball accidentally thrown through a window that disrupts a situation though.
Every day I have to tell myself that people aren’t truly bad they just behave badly. My faith was reaffirmed as soon as I read that you jumped out of the car, so bring on the double edged sword and a Mars condo!
I never thought of myself as one of those annoying baseballs that comes out of nowhere. I don't think it's a big deal though. Just a dude that got in between some chaos to help stop it. That could have backfired on me pretty damn hard too...
It's my belief most people are good. Not perfect. But good enough. There's a reason why the bad ones stand out so much. Rare.
Oh yes, the van man could have pounded on you rather than the red car (tried) but I’ve found most folks are like this Rottweiler down the road from me, all bluster and no bite. Of course there are those uncommon instances...
It’s kinda sad that exhibitions of bravery seem to be just as rare as the truly horrid people. Humble (not annoying lol) baseballs of chaos interruption are super cool to conversate with though, so I’m glad you shared the tale, hope you are having a magnificent weekend.😊
