Thanks ........... or : No Thanks ?


Sometimes we regret the moment we decided to help someone . Wether we helped an old lady with her bags , and she didn't say " Thank you ! " or we gave our seat to someone on the subway and that person didn't even bothered looking at our face , sometimes we just wish we had not done anything at all . But when we don't help other people out , we tend to feel sorry for them , especially for old people , the same old people that sometimes find it extremely difficult to say " thanks " . The same thing happens when boys help other men . I don't know if that is a sign of male pride or not , but most men don't like to say that they are thankful , especially in southern european countries , where mentalities sometimes look as if they're still in the middle ages . If you happen to say "thank you " to someone who happens to be male , you're probably going to be misunderstood ( some people will acctually think that you're a fag or something like it ! ) . But going to back to the subject of education , aren't people rude sometimes ? Sometimes it's because they're lives are filled with problems , and we do act the same when things seem to be becoming a little shitty . Oh well , who said that we humans were simple beings , surely must have been drunk .

Ahahaha, Vanessa, so radical... :) Well, Nuno, I don`t know what to say. It`s only a matter of people. You can`t stick `em all in the same bag and categorize them. Each and every one has another mentality. Old people suck, anyway... they`re such a pain in the ass sometimes. I guess their way of thinking is : 'Well, tomorrow I shall probably die. So why bother saying thank you anyway?' =))
