But I'm a person. Not an animal, not an inanimate object. I don't need to be treated like a celebrity or anything, but can we all act like respectable, civilized people for just a second? Stop speaking to me like I'm the scum of the earth for just a moment and give me some proper customer service. That is all I ask. Thank you.
I don't understand why people are so nasty to each other. Do we not know how special we are? Since when did human lives become so... unimportant. Maybe I'm being too much of an idealist, but is it wrong for me to believe that people are special? I know I'm guilty of treating others as inconsequential beings... patrons who need to get what they order and get out, but there's got to be more to life. I know that money drives us to the necessity of taking a job that you may not like... I'm right there with you, but we are all special and unique.
Every human being is designed by God. Hand made, there is no other person in this world that is like you. I'm surrounded by people every day, and I don't even offer them a smile. This is wrong of me. I want to believe the best out of every person, even if they are unkind to me. I want to treat people better. I want to stop being so easily annoyed by people, and start seeing people the way God sees them.
I am not an animal. I am not an inanimate object. I am a person. I will assume the responsibilty of treating fellow people with respect and dignity.
