I saw two blind persons in the LRT today.
When the LRT arrived at their destination, the two of them stood up and headed towards the wrong door.
No one helped them.
When the two of them started panicking, a kind lady helped to direct the two of them towards the right exit.
Just when I thought the problem was solved, the two blind persons headed down the wrong platform exit.
Again, no one helped them.
Some rude man even jumped across their walking stick, holding back his curse upon seeing the two who almost made him tripped.
And again, no one helped them.
Everyone left the platform except for a kind couple, who spent time guiding the two of them out of the station.
Someone helped them.
I was seating 5 metres away when I saw this. I was helpless. "Oh heaven's sake, why can't anyone help them?" However, I did learn something out of this incident.
1. Life is unfair. Some people are born with a perfect body, but do not use their brain.
2. There is still hope in this earth. There are still many helpful people around.
3. Treat these handicapped with kindness. You'd never know one day, you might be the handicapped who yearns for a little extra attention.
The next time you see someone like them, why not just spare them a few seconds, and that would make a huge difference.
