What would you do?

would you aid a fallen person?

too often we tend to give ourselves plenty of good reasons to not help

if a person is dirty and holding a can of beer

we tend to tell ourselves

that he is just a drunk homeless guy

and he is just probably sleeping

or something

and walked away.


maybe due to bystander effect?

there are so many people around

someone who is better qualified could help him

i am just a normal person


help

we should

and we could

but

would you?

The line between good and evil, hope and despair, does not divide the world between "us" and "them." It runs down the middle of every one of us.

Robert Fulghum (b.1937)
It Was on Fire When I Lay Down on It, 1990

food for thought.
