A woman stood on the sidewalk waiting for a change of lights. A seventeen-year-old girl was standing opposite. The woman noticed that the girl was crying.
The green light went on and they crossed the road. Once they were equal, the woman felt a surge of maternal instinct. She wanted to come and cheer her up. But she passed her without saying a word.
Many hours later she was still haunted by the memory of a tearful face. She kept telling herself, "Why did not I come and ask if I could help?" Of course, she could have snapped at it, but so what? "Those few moments would have been enough to convince her that she was concerned.
And I passed her, as if she did not exist for me. "
I hope you have enjoyed !!!

that's an stunning story in life we see unexpected experiences
It is our life experience. Thank you
Sadly, we've all been in that position @margaretwise. At such times I justify it by thinking that maybe they would be embarrassed that someone had noticed them crying and I am sure that is the truth sometimes.
Other times they may just wish to be noticed. There is no way to tell unless we ask and we most often don't. 😢
It is really hard to say it what is good in this particular situation. I just noticed that in our life and I hope we do not become robots without hearts.
I can't imagine you ever becoming a robot without a heart @margaretwise. It simply isn't in you.
And maybe that's the clue as to how to handle such situations. If we feel drawn to speak we do so before out heads kick in and tell us all the reasons not to. And if we don't feel drawn to speak we do not. Neither right nor wrong. Just an action in the moment without too much thinking. 😍
Wishng you a heartfelt day! 💙
Kisses my dear you made my day :)
