Well...I've been really tired latelly. I come home after work and I just want to lay in my bed and sleep...BUT, I have that thing, what's that name again...? Ahh, anxiety. My head just can't stop and give me a rest.
So, I usually put some random movie or serie that I've seen like 487494383 times and, sooner or later, I finally fall asleep. I started to see How I Met Your Mother again and just finished episode 12 from the season 2 and...that got me thinking and believe me, the secret lies on the details.
Basically there's a scene where Robin and Ted are arguing about why Robin can't say "I love you" to him and why Ted said "I love you" so soon to her. Suddenly, "since Ted is such an "I love you" slut", he turns to the first person he sees and say "hey, you Sir, I love you". The scene was on the entrance of the Empire State Bulding. The guy starts crying and say "thank you man, I was going up there to jump".
As you might know, HIMYM is all about comedy but that scene... People really need to start thinking that their actions have consequences on others peoples lifes. Fogetting the all comedy thing, a simple "I love you" from a stranger made other stranger to completely change his mind about ending his own life.
People really need to stop looking to their own bellies and care more about others.
Just because your spa session was rescheduled to the next day you do not have the right to go out to drink that cold beer and chill and be rude to the waitress who's serving you just because your life isn't going as planned.
You don't know that waitress. You don't know nothing about her life neither what she might going through. What if her sister just died from a horrible desease, her mother is sick too and she has to have three jobs to only pay the rent from the crappy apartment they live in? What if you threw the tiny remain of confidence she had to the pit and made her think "what am I doing here?". What if she was that guy from the Empire State Building and there was no one to say "I love you" to her, no one to change her mind?
All of this, just because you couldnt' handle the fact that your meaningless spa appointment was going to happen just and only 24h after what you originally planned.
Now, think.
And, if you can't see any sense on what I just wrote, I'm really sorry for you. I'm sorry for being apart of the 90% of our society that is doomed to stupidity. An empty headed society feeded by self-centeredness and anger. A society where's more important to look good on that photo to that hot guy - that is probably as empty as you are - see, than to look good as a human being to that person who might going through an awful day and still, has a smile on the face and a kind word to give when you're only going around acting like an ass.
