People Today

I have come to the conclusion that I tend to use this blog as a complaining device. Rather than annoying friends or my family, I just write all my thoughts out on here. Today I just want to talk about how people are so annoying sometimes. Like when you are walking and someone does not hold the door open for you. Or if you are driving and people tend to just think it is okay to cut you off or ignore using signals all together. People in today's society really only care about themselves, I come to that conclusion. Most people are out for themselves, and could care less if they affect or help any other person. People in general I find to be rude. Occasionally you will meet someone who is actually nice, but in general if you don't know them they tend to not give the slightest care about you. People will chew with their mouth open, make messes, cut me off, ignore me, and are just plain rude. I don't understand today's society. What happened to the days when everyone did everything for everyone else. I find that we don't have any sort of a community anymore. Our country has become so individualistic that the idea of helping out someone is completely absurd. It is pretty sad that I cannot even leave my door unlocked any more because someone will come in and steal things or who knows, try to kidnap me. I can't go anywhere alone at night anymore, because someone might try to do something to me. It's pathetic that we as humans cannot do certain things because of the threat of others. What happened to the days of little kids going out bike riding by themselves. Everything has changed, and in my opinion for the worst. People are becoming more afraid of everything. We are more controlling, and protective of our family and property. Letting someone borrow a shirt is even not a good idea, because you won't know if you ever will get it back. It is sad. Sometimes I wish I could go back in time to when things were simple like this, and I didn't have to worry about such silly things. I am afraid it is just going to get worse too. Our society is changing and so are our younger generations. People will become so into themselves that helping someone will be completely disapproved. I myself am even afraid to help someone. I am afraid that if I give money to the homeless man on the street he will just go and use it for drugs. I am afraid that if I walk my dog at night someone might try to rob me. I am afraid that if I approach someone I do not know they will pull out a gun and shoot me. Call me paranoid, but I think most people have to agree that our society is not what it used to be years ago. It has become a very scary world, and people are constantly changing into this awful direction. Hopefully the younger generations can make this change. Unfortunately, it does not look like it is going to happen though.
