We are in the same world
Hot 4 |
It was cold and within light rain this nightfall ...
when i finished my whole day work ,and on the way go home by bus .
i saw an old couple sang in the rainy day under the streetlight ,several strong of wind
hit the tree beside the street with the leaves down ,it makes me feel sentimental of this scence
so many people around them and listen the music ,obviously ,they sang good engough .
After a minutes ,i saw so many people give them money ,for 1RMB or 2RMB or more ...
but i have fouding somethings important ,the people who give money to this couple are the same age
as them , i seldom saw a young man give money to the couple .
it makes me coufused why this happened ,the reason i think that is the young man think they were
fraud ,maybe the young men were fooled by the people the same as the couple before ,so they do not
belive them ,so they could not give them the money ,on the other hand , we always saw the news on the
internet or Tv ,it always said the roadside begging always earn many money more than our normal
people ,so we can not belive them anymore .
but on the other hand ,if they really need help ,if we can not give our hand ,so ti means that we
lost the chance to help somebody whom is really need help .
i think it more but i do not know how to say ....
i give 1RMB to them and run away quickly ,i did not like to see this scence ,it makes me sorrow .
when i go home ,i find i give the wrong money ,i give them 50RMB,just because i give the money to
them so quickly so i did not see clearly of the money ,ok , i did not feel regret about it , maybe they really
need help .
the topic make us to think more ,the society ,our brethren , our life ...
we are in the same world , i wish everyone enjoy they life in the world .beceuse we do not have
twice life .

- This the phenomenon existed not only in our land, but also we can see it in other countries. Ok, the point is the a begger has his own dignity. There must be reasons for they do so.
Another point is the trust among people now becomes more fragile, since we even do not what is about to believe. Food safety, air pollution, other fraud deeds, and so forth, all of them are the weak control of government regulations. Though we believe things are going to be all right, now, at least, it brings us the imformation that is DO NOT BELIEVE IN ANYTHING ELSE. Beneath the cold human relation, there is the problem of real democracy and socialism.
Thanks for your 50 RMB, whaterever the couple they are, you are blessed.

- This phenomenon is a kind of thing like "Shall we seize the fallen old people?" In the course of our traditional education, there is no doubt that we should hold the fallen old people. We are teached that it is our duty to help old people. If someone ignores the person who is in trouble, he or she will be condemned seriously by the citizens. However, after the case of "pengyu", people 's moral values is subverted. We do not trust anyone. We choose to protect ourselves instead of helping the poor people, though we may betray our good conscience sometimes. In my opinion, social opinion palys a key role in this wierd phenomenon. It usually determines all the similar things into one conclusion without reasonable analysis. It also can instruct people to behave in an certain direction. This power is too strong. What we need to do is that we have to think about things calmly when we contact them the first time, and do not be bounded by social opinion.

- It is so ironical that people can't identify a matter's authenticity.We're all taught to give aid to people in need,but it's so disgusting when we get some news that frauds pretend to be poor to win sympathy from others. In order to avoid being cheated,most of us will choose to ignore beggars along streets.
Sometimes,I see young people kneel along streets begging for money,I really can't understand why they don't earn money by themselves? Don't they feel ashamed of dropping self-respect?
