Being kind to someone doesn’t cost a cent. It’s when people feel it’s their duty to offend or be rude to others, that things start to get messy. But unfortunately, as the video below clearly proves, some people really don’t believe in being empathetic and generous to others. In fact, they would rather say something that is out of order and somewhat ridiculous in an attempt to show off or prove their beliefs. This, at the end of the day, is part of what is wrong with the world today.
Luckily, the video below also highlights another important message—the fact that service men and women are selfless and hardworking individuals who compromise themselves and their families in order to give others a life worth living. They give up living a lot of their family and personal milestones so we can make those memories with our own families. They lose a lot while protecting us and our country, and for that, we should always be indebted to them. This is, of course, is the message that we hope you take away from this video today.
In it, you will see a veteran conducting a social experiment by ordering food from a fast food restaurant. He persists to ask the cashier if they offer a discount to veterans but before the server could answer, a woman behind the gentlemen decided to pipe in and give her opinion. She expressed her thoughts by saying that all service men and women were entitled and that they merely use their veteran status for personal gain. But, things quickly turn as the gentleman decided to tell his side of the story.
In a calm and rational manner, he gave the woman a piece of his mind and explained the role of veterans worldwide. Her reaction? She had lost her appetite. I think the man handled this problem with so much grace and dignity. He could have got into a heated argument with the woman, especially given how poorly she addressed him and his job. But, instead, he reasoned with her by being as polite as possible.
Give the harrowing video a watch and if you agree with what the young gentleman had to say, share it with your family and friends.
Additionally, a big thank you goes out to all service men and women worldwide.
