last week there was a blind guy trying to cross the road alone. he didn't have one arm and was struggling to find the direction of the clinic he was going to. I spent like 20 seconds looking at the poor dude between roads not knowing which direction to go to, scared that if I get there to help he is now my responsibility and god knows where he wants to go. Finally I took the courage to go there because he looked really lost, just hoping I didn't have to escort him too far.
Gladly, the clinic he was going was just crossing the street and I felt like a good person for helping him out. I'm not a good person because of it though, in fact I'm an asshole who would have done nothing if there was someone else around to help, or if the blind man looked remotely like someone who knew where he was going.
when I see things like that, I feel similarly. this is face up a good thing to do, give some of your time to someone with a disability or whatever. but then he recorded and uploaded that on social media so people can see what a good man he is, and I can't help but feel cynical about it...
