I am staying at my sister’s place for two weeks as she and her husband go on a work trip to baby sit her five and a half years old daughter and fourteen month old son.
Since this was a last minute thing we had not made prior arrangements to move my luggage so the other option for me was to rough it and take a matatu (bus).
I believe in the good in people but yesterday I was disappointed, I sat close to the door so that I would keep my bag out of the way but then the problem began when the bus conductor moved my bag to a better position which ended up blocking people getting out of the bus and this particular lady gotten so angry that she kicked my bag and it rolled over and a t- shirt got out to the dirt.
What do you say to that person? Pick a quarrel or just understand that my bag acted as her stress reliever?
As the journey came to an end, people were in such a rush to get out of the bus that at one point my bag was sandwiched between me and a ‘gentleman’.
The only question I want an answer to is, when did we stop caring for our fellow humankind to give a bit of assistance once in a while or just give way?
If you see someone with luggage please give way, let them through.
