Sad. Shameful. Depressing.
I have asked myself, how is it that so many can be so non-responsive to another human being in such a situation? I have no answer. It is far beyond my comprehension and I am saddened and ashamed that we, as a people, have arrived at this point. There were far to many people there for this to have happened. I suppose I could understand a couple of uncaring attitudes, but that many, all in the same place at the same time?
I rolled my truck some years back. I was on my way home from work at about one in the morning. It rolled end to end and side to side and ended up in a field and wasn't visible from the road. It was a very winding road out in the country. To this day, I don't know what happened.
I was covered in blood wandering around on the highway in a state of shock. About ten cars passed, gawked and drove on. Finally some folks on their way home from an out of town Christian event stopped. Wrapped me in a quilt they had in their and took me to the hospital. When I was better, I met with all of them to express my gratitude for their actions. They were/are wonderful people.
