Be cool, the world is not about you. Being selfish is very unhealthy for all those involved. The other day I decided to take a walk along the jogging lane of the Cross-Island Parkway. This is a warm sunny day so I decide to remove my shirt to exercise and get a tan at the same time. The stretch of land alone the highway is part of a park, where people go to exercise, meditate and unwind from the aches of daily life.
There is no government policy that states that I have to keep my shirt on while exercising in the park. One day last week, I am in my own world with my headphones on and my shirt off sweating up a storm. As the music is playing I hear a voice coming from in front of me, "Hey you! Put your shirt on you look terrible!" I holler back, "Keep your eyes on the road and not me!"
Society is full of problems and everyone carries their share and do not need to carry any extra grief. If for whatever reason you do not like something in front or around you the park is the best place to be. Who are you to open your mouth and be confrontational. We all live equally in society and are entitled to be with in the guidelines that are set by us and our peers.
I do not hold you down and conversly you should not hold me!!!
