Inconsiderate

I think one of the things that puzzles me the most about this world is inconsiderate people. You feel so much better about yourself when you do nice things for other people, right? Why not do small things that make other people's lives easier and not harder. Of course, not everything is this simple. Many things are far more complicated but what I'm trying to say is simple: be nice to people. So one thing that I've written about before but this weekend nearly had me in tears was the fact that boys do not do dishes. If they do, they only do theirs and then it's done. Simple. They leave them there for weeks like it's no big deal. It's someone else's stuff to deal with. But really, it would take you 2 minutes to take that sponge and wipe up the mostly clean dish that the other person left soaking. People are so wrapped up in their lives, studies, video games, and TV to give two seconds about anyone else. I fall into this, too, of course. I don't always help out when needed. But I feel like I do my fair share. I try to not be selfish. Maybe that's the way I was raised but I really hate it. I also don't understand when people don't hold the door open for other people. Like really? You can do that. Just do the little things to improve the world. That's all I'm asking. And clean up after yourself, PLEASE.
