It's sad to see what society has become these days. Gone are the days where good Samaritans are willing to lend a hand to those in need. I don't blame them, coz there are many cases of good people lending a helping hand and then got themselves into trouble. Recently my friends has been sending SMS on cases like an Indian family, together with wife and baby, going round robbing people who would sympathize with them, asking for a ride under the rain, only to rob the person who offered to give them a lift. It's disgusting how these people can be so selfish, by exposing a young infant in the cold pouring rain to get sympathy votes to rob, and it's disgusting to know that these people would hurt another human being for their selfish gain. But then again, I also sympathize the people who rob, most of the time they need the money more than we do, though i hope the money stolen goes to good use and not to buy booze and drugs. Those who rob to survive in the city, to feed their families and send their children to school. I'm pretty sure they are scared too when they rob, coz if they don't fend for themselves, who will? and out of wedlock, they rob. I wonder, how can we make this world a better place? I wonder, if more people would just reach out to touch their lives, would this community be a better place to live in? I wonder.. if i will ever be able to reach out to these people.
