I was watching the news while I was in the airport this weekend. I don't normally watch...I had packed some work to do and had planned to get a lot done.
I was watching because something extremely disturbing caught my attention.
A dead man had finally been reported after he lay dead in the street for an hour. IN DOWNTOWN!!
The man in the street had saved someones life, in the meanwhile given his own. Several people passed---several. Not one person stopped...not one. A mans body was in the street and not one person stopped.
Seriously? Is our world that desensitized? I pray I NEVER become so consumed with myself that I can't see others around me. I pray that no one in my family ever lies on the ground to rot for an hour before someone in the world notices.
Has our respect for human life dissolved? Are we really that selfish? Consumed?
This is scary.....
