[quote=Anonymous]I once fell on an escalator at Union Station on my way home from work and badly injured my leg, and people stepped *over* me to get around me. But also we live in a city where there are people everywhere who need help. People who are homeless, hungry, have mental health problems. I do think it makes people cynical and oblivious. And also I think someone in your situation (and mine) has more resources to address their issue than a lot of people I see daily who obviously need help, and who I don't help. When I fell, I limped home bleeding and took a shower and at a meal in my apartment, and the next day I went to the doctor and they were able to drain what turned out to be a hematoma (never fall down on an escalator if you can help it). I was fine. So are you. Yes, it would be nice if we lived in a society where people helped each other more, but at least we are part of the fortunate group with the means to help ourselves.[/quote]
