It has been one of those days. Ok, weeks. Wellll...maybe its more like months!! (with the emphasis on the plural!) My extremely long day was made complete by the woman who is notorious for refusing to walk down a flight of steps from the second floor to the first floor. Daily...the elevator will stop at the second floor where she enters...regardless of how packed it already is. Did I mention this is not a petite woman??? Today when the doors refused to stay shut, SHE did not get off...I did. All the while resisting my urge to smack her upside the head with my lunch bag upon exit!!!
Sadly it seems some days life is a constant flow of people like this. They just have NOOOO clue! And we, the nice, polite, respectful people must endure them. And why? Sometimes I want to be the NOT so nice person. But I know I would not be happy for very long being not nice.
There is a great deal of satisfaction in knowing you have done right. Whether its being respectful of elders, making smart choices, helping another, or just being polite. It is sad that many of these things are lost on many people.
So when I go to bed tonight I can rest peaceful knowing I was nice and DID NOT smack that woman with my lunch bag!! :)
