Some things you can never erase from your memory, like what i saw today as i headed to the office. It was something that made me want to cry and i also felt very ashamed of myself.
I usually take the bus in the morning, apart from the showers in the morning everything was like usual. I love the front seats, and i get to see Nairobi like a tourist but today someone had already sat there. It was a young man, i wanted to sit next to him but he was bleeding it was like someone had beaten him up. So i took the sit behind him.
I wanted to talk to him but i decided not to, everyone who got in the bus skipped that sit. Then a lady full of class took the sit next to him, what she did was amazing, she greeted the young man then took a tissue paper and helped him wipe his face. At that moment i remembered the story of the Good Samaritan, and i realized it was the same thing happening. The Lady talked to the man, i could not hear what he was saying for i was clouded with a mixture of emotions, i felt guilty and sad for ignoring that man. All he needed was a kind word.
I learn't my lesson as for the lady i will never forget her act of kindness. Next time i will do better...
Its all about my experiences and my journey home...Just a writer expressing herself.....
