Lesson from Karma
I don't know why, but I feel like I need to share this with you guys:
Today after work I was walking down the escalator on BART. People who choose to stand and not walk stay to the right. It's raining like crazy so everything is wet and slippery. There's a guy standing on the left side as I make my way down, so I say "Hey, is this your first time on BART? You're supposed to stand to the right!" He moves to the right and I continue past him. Not two seconds later I slip and get pitched on my back, hard. I hit so hard that the girl behind me actually screamed. lol. This is rush hour in the financial district of San Francisco, so hundreds of people saw this. My hand is bleeding all over the place, and I had to wait 4 minutes for my train to arrive while everyone stared at me like this:  hmy:
Some might say that I slipped. Others might say that Karma checked my #$!#$!#$! for being rude. Either way, I sure feel humble right now.

Rush hour you may see some of them again.... Sorry maybe thats not help full. Was the girl cute? maybe you get some sympathy next time she sees you and she will strike up a conversation.

Oh, I'm sure I'll see a lot of them again, unfortunately. Maybe I'll start driving to work. lol
I didn't look at the girl behind me because I was to embarrassed. I'm taken anyway so it doesn't really matter.

I have always said people need to slow down!! But I'm just a hippy!! The answer is still to slow down cause if you wouldn't have been in a hurry you wouldn't have offended karma. IMHO
