so as he drop to the floor in fits of shakeing and convulsing
everyone got on with there shopping walking around him and monouvering to the cookie isle in order to not make any sort of contact with the freakish man on the floor
but what if that was somebody you cared about hey you would be in fits screaming call 999 or help or doing something
but just because he was doing the friday night shopping on his own he had no identity to any body just because there was nobody screaming help nobody did
he lie there on the floor with no friend nor family member because maybe they were just to busy to come this time maybe he was buying his wife flowers on his way home maybe picking up some sweets for the kids but the fact is nobody knows and therefore nobody cared
i saw this from the opposite end and ran towards him knowing not what i could do because quite frankly i couldnt do anything except for be with him in the hope to rally somebody who might have some sort of knowledge what to do in this sittuation and so on my arrival a sainsburys staff member showed up after about a 10 minute argument with another worker it was agreed that calling 999 was probably the best thing to do
whilst people in line slightly tilted there heads to see the man and now his small following of blue and orange jacketed staff and they whispered whispered about the man who is now infront of them with nothing with no one just on his own in an hour of need and they just whisper and pretend to check the line to make sure we remembered to get the right kind of cheese
and at that moment i lost something
maybe it was faith that everything in the world will eventually be ok
maybe the feeling that i will one day be ok
maybe the idea that there is good in everyone
i dont know
but try telling me im not aloud to be upset about this
try telling me this isnt aloud to effect me because i couldnt do anything
yeah your right i couldnt do anything and for that i will continue to judge my self
