Message: <blockquote data-quote="THAT Gurl" data-source="post: 3882458" data-attributes="member: 45551">I regularly ask our elderly or people with obvious mobility problems if they would like help out to their car with their groceries. More than one person -- and more than a few of them men -- have had a lot of difficulty holding back the tears. It saddens me that less than a generation ago it was the norm to have a young person working who helped anyone who needed it load their groceries into their car and now people are so shocked by a simple courtesy they can't speak. <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" alt="😢" title="😢" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f622.png" />That saying you can't change the world but you can change someone's world comes to mind. I'm no saint, mind you, just an old retired lady who knows how she would like to be treated and tries to treat others that way. <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" alt="🤷" title="🤷" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f937.png" /> I am happy to report that there are a couple of youngsters at work who are starting to question my "methods", wanting to know why I bother. I don't mind sharing my philosophy. Some day I will be required to move to another plane of existence, as we all will. I want karma to know without a shadow of a doubt that while I was far from perfect, at least my heart was sincere and I tried ... Because there were a couple of jobs where I did not try. In fact, I "might" have done everything in my power to make those people miserable before I left. I sincerely hope that when they think of me it sends a shiver down their spine and a tinge of fear in their heart. See?? I'm NOT perfect after all ... <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" alt="😂" title="😂" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f602.png" /><img class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" alt="😂" title="😂" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f602.png" /><img class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" alt="😂" title="😂" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f602.png" /> Now where's my broom ... <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" alt="😉" title="😉" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" /><img class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" alt="😁" title="😁" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f601.png" /></blockquote>
