A couple of days back at around 7:00 pm in the evening i was walking along with my sister towards my relatives home.I'm basically a very lazy person and always look for a rickshaw :P but that day somehow thought i should walk or i'l die of an heart stroke at young age( this is the effect of health shows on TV :P) .
As i and sis were trying to figure out shortest way to reach the relative's home , i heard a faint voice which made me turn around and i saw an hand waving out to me. It was an Young lady who was accompanied by two other young ladies , she said in kannada "Madam, swalpa barteera.Ondu nimisha mathadbeku" which made me think if i had known her and i looked for my sister to check if she could figure out what was happening but my sis was not there beside ! The thing is my sis had gone way ahead not even realising my absence :P lol
I looked back again to that lady and was confused if i should speak to her or i should carry and i carried on to join my sis.
That night i thought about why i din't speak to her ,what if she was in need of some help but i have seen sufficient number of people all over Bangalore city calling out to people for help with reasons like they have lost their wallets or lost their parents etc etc. which we find out to be false once we see the same people, at the same place and with same reasons.Because of such incidents, like all others even i assumed the lady to be a fake and choose not to waste my time.However, I still have the guilt thought , what if she was really in need??
So. the next time if i confront this situation i would choose to speak to the person and at least find out the situation and then decide if it really needs my help rather than walk away and put myself into guilt trip !!
lol nice:-)even help me yar.. m lost in my dream:(

widout speaking how can we help

No need to feel guilty and all. If we are in trouble, by nature we find some way to get out of it on our own. If someone helps us, it only gets us out of the problem sooner. Otherwise we'd still be fine. Unless it is a medical emergency, do not bother!
