Doesn’t it seem that every time you do the right thing no one really notices it anyway. The minute you do something wrong, you got people calling you from all over the country, “hey is that true what we heard?”. It almost makes you not wanna do the right thing and join the crowd. Why be the guy or gal who goes against the current if in the end no one really cares? I forgot to mention that on Sunday evening as we eagerly looked for parking in front of Bayside, some random car decided to leave. Good for us we were right beside the car. So what do I do? I turn my right hand signal on and reverse just enough to give them room to get out. In doing so the car in front of me that had already drove off quite a bit, reverses right up on my bumper and doesn’t move, knowing I had my signal on. This totally ticked me off so bad. I am thinking to myself, there is no way this heartless person will actually go through with this injustice. Sure enough they did. Two girls jumped out of the car and stood behind the car pulling out of the space, and totally ignored me. For all I knew I was invisible to them. I opened my door and got out of the truck and asked them if they did not see me there this whole time. I got no response…I addressed them again…and the lady driving said, “too bad”. Fire was shooting out of my eyes! I drove right up to the car and asked told the young lady. ” I can’t believe you actually did this knowing I was waiting all this time.?” She didn’t even look at me. I knew deep deep deep inside she felt horrible and was embarrassed. I drove off and hoped that maybe, just maybe she felt some remorse or felt terrible for doing the wrong thing. I was upset inside like you could not believe. I just hate when people do things like this and walk away like nothing. And he we are working as hard as we can to do the right thing and…Well you get my drift. It is not an easy thing to swallow. Do good and “maybe” someone will notice, do bad and you will be ridiculed by the entire planet. That is unless someone else does bad, they can get away with it, not you. I thank God for patience, his grace and love. Gandhi had a quote, ” an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind”. So true. In the end, God See’s everything, and good deeds never go unnoticed in his eyes. Nor the bad doing as well. It just er ks me to see people do wrong with no remorse. Even as subtle as driving into a “DO NOT ENTER” just to get into the lot first. Walking over a piece of trash, ignoring someone you see everyday, not paying, no tipping, portraying something you are not just get the better end. Some wise guy once told me, the good guys always end last…we’ll see about that dude.

College, I remember getting all this free money. Money here, money there. Only thing is, no one told me I had to pay all this back. So many years later I get the tab for it. dang! In the end of our journey in life I believe we’re all gonna get a tab. Some will be clean, others well…It’s part of it. The journey is just as important or even more so then the destination. I think the fray said best, “sometimes the hardest thing and the right thing are the same”…
