Good Citizens

[Damhsa04]

So I just got home and it was a wicked nice day out and so I kept the side door to my house open to get some fresh air in and all of a sudden I hear my trash bins rolling up my drive way. Usually my parents get home around 5-6 o'clock and so it's only 2 here so it's a little weird to be hearing that. So I look outside and some random guy is putting my trash bins at the top of my drive way. At first I thought that this was wicked creepy and I closed my door. Then after a while I was thinking and realized he was just doing a good deed.

Why is it that, in this time, we think that everyone's going to cause some kind of harm to you, and that they're not just trying to do something good?

My mom's neighbors don't even ask, they just take her trash can and recycle can to the curb and bring it back the next day.

I don't ever really get the feeling that people are out to harm me. I give everybody the benefit of the doubt, and assume they have good intentions until they prove otherwise.

Good question, wish I had an answer.

I'd be scared if someone did that to my pails.

but I guess it was nice.

I wouldn't do that for anyone though... unless I knew them... I guess
