Only Love & Respect of Others Makes Human.
------------------------------------------
This is no joke. This is no made up story. This is no nonsense.
Honest to God, this is a real fact of my life. This is my experience.
Event One:
Last year, I was with my 2 infant kids and my spouse on the 3rd floor in the kids playing area at the City Center.
Inside the playing area I was entertaining my 3 and 4 year old kids. Next to me I saw three Qatari young gentlemen standing and smoking inside the playing area as they had also brought some kids with them to entertain.
I went up to them and asked them in English "Good Evening, I would appreciate if you could stop smoking here as this exclusive children area"
Oh Man.....!!!!!
All three of them looked at me like they are going to at least slap me while kept on smoking. I got scared and told them, it’s a decree from the prime minister.
They looked at me again with real anger and one guy told the other guy something in Arabic and they moved from that spot. However, they did not stop smoking.
Event Two:
Almost a month later at KFC near Ramada I went with my spouse and kids to have some food and entertain our kids with some play.
While we were sitting near the playing area, two elderly western gentlemen came along with there food and sat next to us. Unfortunately they were drunk - really drunk as me and my spouse both could smell them from almost 5 feet away.
Though we were a little uncomfortable as we both do not drink, but we gave each other a smile (me and my spouse) and continued with our food.
Suddenly these two gentlemen (being drunk) start discussing some their home country politics between themselves and start using the “F” word again and again. It was not a fight, it was part of their discussion to highlight the importance of an issue
They used the “F” word at least 15-20 times in less than 5 minutes. I got really upset as my kids knowing thing about the word start watching them with interest to understand them and their argument.
I almost shouted at them from our table “excuse me sir, I would appreciate if you do not use such words in front of kids. This is a family area”
Not with a second delay – these two junkies realize their mistake and got up from their table and said “We are really sorry, I am really sorry – I apologize” and moved to a table that was quite a bit away from us.
This apology suddenly reminded me of first event in the City Center and I thought no matter what age you are or in what state you are in, if you are thought respect of others, you will always know what your boundary is.
God Bless All of You.
For Qatari’s: you might think we are just to make some money. Trust me its not that simple.
