one thing i truly hate is littering
when i was a kid i remember i got some food that was in a wrapper and i threw the wrapper on the ground (literally that was my first and last time doing that).. after a few seconds my dad was like, where's the wrapper? he looked back and saw it and made me pick it up that is one thing i am thankful for in my dad, he taught me about just doing what is right despite what you feel like doing.. i've noticed a lot of people can't separate what they want to do and what is the right thing to do.. they think the two are the same.. they aren't one time i was riding in a car with a girl and she blew her nose and threw the tissue out the window.. this disgusted me and made me feel like she had no real integrity i never said anything but that small moment made me lose a ton of respect for her as a person i hate littering, it is just so ghetto.. even if you are rich, it's a very sort of selfish and degrading thing to do to the environment and the people who live in it one problem i have with littering is just how inherently lazy it is.. i mean all a person has to do is carry an item a few more steps to a garbage can or put it in a bag in the car and then toss it later.. its like.. do they understand how quickly nice places would become dumps if everyone littered? do they understand that each action they take is a character-step? one bad decision deserves another integrity has to start somewhere.. you may not have the level of self discipline it takes to get up every day at 6 am and pray then run 5 miles.. but you can start small and at least THROW YOUR GARBAGE IN THE ACTUAL GARBAGE littering is a self-defeating thing.. we have to live on this earth so why trash it? here's another example of what i'm talking about: this past week on multiple occasions i saw a whole family on the street corner asking for money.. wouldn't common sense say, if you're a family (meaning two adults and some children) then ONE adult should stand on the street corner and the other one should look for employment? why isn't at least one of them filling out applications? so again, what you have there is self-defeating behavior, just like littering.. unfortunately we as people sometimes get to the point at times where we just don't even try and we are likely all guilty of it in some way... but integrity has to start somewhere
