The Hallway is Yours, Your Highness

     Rules exist almost everywhere, including many places in the school. The rules are supposedly there to keep us safe, but who cares?
     In the hallways, you're supposed to try to keep to the right, use the door on the right, and not block doorways/entrances/etc. However, why not just walk on the left? Go through the door on the left? I absolutely love and encourage when everyone goes through the wrong door (or both doors from the same side, forcing everyone else to wait, including me who is happy to wait there until someone finally realizes that he maybe should follow simple courtesy, as difficult and inconvenient as it may be). Everyone should go around with the attitude that he is the only person that matters, because that is the only way to live a successful life.
   My friend was going down the correct stairwell when all of a sudden someone else came up, going the wrong way. The wrong-goer proceeded to yell, "out of my way, I'm going to be late!" and my friend was very irritated by this and did not move. Upon hearing this anecdote, I was shocked that my friend would be capable of such rude behavior.  Always yield to the person going the wrong way, because he is always right. The day everyone realizes that the wrongs are actually right and that everyone else is better than she is is the day the world will finally run smoothly.
    The parking lot is another example. Many cars do not stop at mandatory stops/crosswalks.  But why should they? Why not make the pedestrians wait for a change? You're in the car, you're much bigger so you could take them, easy. Also, people have began to use the wrong lane and cut off people last minute, saving themselves time by getting in front of everyone.  Many people dislike this and honk and are irritated and feel it's unfair, but why? That person is obviously better than you are, they do not need to follow the rules like the rest. (Don't ask why they're better than everyone else, they just are and everyone knows it so you should, too.)
      The moral of these stories is to never think of anyone but yourself. You're royalty, and everyone else is the dead bugs on your windshield. But also assume that everyone is better than you are because that is true, as well. They are royalty, and you're a bug.  It's not a double-standard. Not at all.

  3. You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this topic to be really something which I think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and extremely broad for me. I’m looking forward to your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!
