So I was on my daily route this morning and saw a bruised blind man standing near a construction area. I ran to him as fast as I could and when I reached him, I noticed that he had a scrape of blood on his forehead and he looked very confused and nervous. I slowly held his hand and told him that I would take him to his destination. I was carrying about 25 helium balloons in my hands so it was a bit difficult but I managed.
It was a busy street and as we took a couple of steps I noticed a huge crowd of people standing at a bus stop looking at me with a sigh of relief. These people were waiting for their NYC bound bus which arrives every 10 minutes.
So my question is, why didn't any of them help this poor man? Would it have been so bad if they were late to work by 10 minutes? Why were they all waiting for 'superman' to arrive when anyone who can see and walk could have helped him?
