In this morning I went to the bus station to get to work. At 7:00 AM the streets were already crowded. I stayed in the station for 10 minutes and I watched those around me. Many of them probably still felt sleepy. It's just one of the ordinary mornings of a working day.
I was sleepy and I thought it's good that tomorrow is weekend and I'll sleep until later.
By mystake I forgot my headphones at home.
To bed! I couldn't listen to music in this day...
This, however, makes me more careful about what is happening around me.
All the seats in the bus were busy, some people stood up. I noticed a pregnant lady standing next to me.
Then I analyzed those standing in front of this lady: there were 3 men, I could see on their face that they weren't tired.
One of them checked his updates on Facebook.
Another read bored a newspaper.
One started looking at some video with full volume and laughing, hysterical, very noisy.
What bothered me? What was the problem?
They noticed the pregnant woman and they didn't even offer her a seat. But if she had her leg in pain and had to sit down, would they give her the seat in this case?
They didn't show any sign of respect for this woman.
How much education should have those men? What values do they have?
I will never know.
The pregnant woman looked at me, giving me a forced smile as if there was nothing to do. I got off the bus with the thought that some people are selfish, have no education, without a gesture of politeness for a pregnant woman and for anyone else.
What do you think about my exeperince? Why some people are indifferent and do not have respect for women? Why they do not have manners?
