Day Eleven

There is this story in a Complaint Free World that I've been thinking about for the past few days. It doesn't have a name so I named it "The Ginger Story." It is about Will Bowen's dog Ginger. This guy ran over  Ginger and killed her. When Mr. Bowen  confronted him, the man said these words, "I know I hit your dog, what are you going to do about it?" To this Mr.Bowen said, "Put up your hands and defend yourself, I'm going to kill you!!"  The guy told him he wasn't going to fight him  and if he attacked him, Mr. Bowen would be charged with assault and then the guy turned and walked casually away. You can imagine how angry this would make anyone feel. That night, while in bed struggling with the events of the day, Mr. Bowen  came up with a saying, "Those who hurt are hurting."  I think this is pretty good saying. I mean who could do that to a dog and not care. It makes me sad and mad at the same time to think about all the hurting people in the world. Just remember if  someone's been picking on you or being a jerk, they are probably hurting.
