First of all I will say; no one is perfect. Everyone is guilty of being rude, thoughtless, and selfish at some time in their life. With that said, how many of us mature as we grow older and decide to grow some manners ‘so to speak’ and choose to think before we speak or act? If we did that, then we could choose our words or how we behave a little more carefully and maybe prevent hurting someone’s feelings. But how many of us really care how others feel? In this ‘me first world’ I wonder how many people care enough to stop and think before they open their mouths to speak.
Even though this particular story is fiction, based strongly on fact; experiences such as the ones in this story, and much worse, happen every day. Names have been changed.
