Be Courteous

I want to a share an incident which took place and it made me think.Myself,my husband and our kid, we were returning from a vacation and we have to travel in a bus and it was night journey and it is a long journey.All of us were waiting for the bus.It was cold night and every one who was waiting there were expecting for the bus.Finally the bus came and there was a huge rush and all of them where in a mind set to catch the seat,finally we managed to get seats,we had couple of shoulder bags. All of them who are traveling in that bus kept their bags near their foot.But the person who was sitting in the seat before us kept his bag under his seat,which means his bags where extending till our foot and we cant keep our bags.He kept his bag in this way so that he can wide spread his foot and sit comfortably.My husband requested him saying "can u please move your bag?".If i was in this situation i would definitely move the bag,if some one would request for.That guy is a north Indian guy,he doesn't seem to bother about anything and he said "I would recommend you to find some other seat".
                                                              We finally managed to get some other seat,But the person who was sitting behind this guy had a difficult time keeping his  bags and he adjusted keeping his foot on top of his bags.The guy would have thought he is smart and he had achieved something but his actions are noted down and he will get back in return.I am not like anniniyan,to give punishment for his actions from garudapanjangam.This may be a simple issue,but we have to share and adjust at least for these simple things and be courteous to others.Even if we are not helping others at least we should not trouble others.

If a man be gracious and courteous to strangers, it shows he is a citizen of the world.
-Francis Bacon
