Humans
It isn't often that I notice anything about people. I am not a people person and I do not enjoy people watching. That being said, I was at the Scott and White hospital today and I did notice something that just made me so sad. A woman was in there with her mother. The mother was in a wheel chair. The daughter was sitting near her. The old woman was just sitting there. The daughter was on her smart phone and never spoke a word to her mother. When they called her mother, she stood up, stuck her phone in her mother's purse and pushed her to the back. She never said a word to her mother. This struck me as just heartless. Old people need to feel wanted and relevent. They need interactions. They are not dead. This was so inconsiderate and disrespectful. I just can't warp my mind around it. I would give the world to have my mom back and be able to talk to her. Then I saw a mother with three small children. She was pregnant, very pregnant. Her smallest was a baby. The baby was in a stroller and the about 2 year old wanted to be in the stroller. He was screaming and screaming. She sat with her smart phone and ignored him. Just ignored him. His older brother, around 4-5, calmed him. Why in hell would that woman have children if she had no more feeling for them than that? Humans never cease to piss me off. Life is short and those damn smart phones do not matter. Your family is what matters. Sorry for the rant, but it really gets to me.
