[QUOTE="stevetheupsguy, post: 549171, member: 9662"] That was actually the number 4 train and I was all of 22 at the time. I have learned, after many experiences and by the grace of God, that I am not the police, nor am I the Savior of the world. Though given the same circumstance, I may react in similar fashion, though I do have different insight today due to the fact that [B]I'M GROWN UP[/B]. What I meant in my post was........the things we are not in control of. In Danny's story about the abducted woman, it sounded like he was angry that no one stopped/called the police as well as not being able to be there to save her, himself. Face it, things are going to happen. They will happen in front of us and nowheres near us. Sometimes we will respond and sometimes we won't. We are human. We make mistakes. Sometimes we take chances and sometimes we don't. Sometimes we call someone on their foolish words/jokes, sometimes we don't. I learned a long time ago that I am not in control of everything that happens in this world. It didn't come easy, but I did finally learn the lesson. I'll use my family as an example. I won't be there to rescue my children from all the scrapes/mistakes and foolish things they will do. When I can be there and assist, I will, but being human, limits my life saving potential. Again, I don't expect everyone that reads this post to feel the same as I do. We are all human but are not all of the same mind. Feel free to be who you are and think what you want. Again, JMHO, as always. [/QUOTE]
