Where have all the good people gone...........

I am a strong believer in paying it forward and random acts of kindness. So this morning after 1-1/2 hours of sleep i get in my van to catch my 5:17am train. My van is on empty so i am praying to make it to the gas station before i run out. I get to the gas station run my card it says see cashier. I go inside then the clerk  runs it again and says its declined. I am so confused i know we have money. I say can i just write a check he says no we don't take checks. Are you kidding me? So i walk back to my van freaking out i need to get my train. I definitely don't have enough gas to get to train station. I ponder on what to do so finally i get out and explain to a man what has happened and if he could help me. He looked at me and said NO. Okay thanks i am already humiliated by even doing this. So i have no other choice to try again everyone can't be heartless. I am thinking in my head i have helped people in this same situation and never thought twice about it. So here i go ask again NO sorry. UGH okay now here comes the tears. How can people be so heartless. I was telling them i would write them a check even. So i see a girl i ask her NOPE! I am now balling. I can't believe i am out here doing this and NO ONE will help me men or woman. Are you serious!  After the 5th person i was done! I called my dad and explained what happen and he came and helped me. I was seriously in shock i couldn't believe no one would help me. I was in my uniform shirt from work. i had a check book with my id i wasn't drunk LOL and no one would help me. What has this world come to? I was disgusted! I hope my kids never need help and if someone else does need help i hope they use caution and also their heart! I mean 5 bucks isn't much but it may have gotten me to the train on time. Yes i missed my train. So that was the start to my Friday i hope my weekend gets better. I hope i play on each and everyone of those peoples minds today and it bothers them that they were so heartless! Hope no one ever ends up in that situation. Have a great weekend everyone!
