What would you do? :
1. THE BIRD: You are driving down the highway. Ahead of you, cars are slightly swerving out of their lane. You whiz by and see that a bird has seemingly been clipped by a vehicle. It is squawking in pain, dragging it’s wing and trying in vain to get out of the traffic.
Do you ignore the bird and drive on? If so, are you still thinking about it? Do you stop and turn around to go back for the bird? Do you do something else altogether?
2. THE DRAGONFLY: You are staying somewhere on vacation that has a pool. While you are sipping a cold drink and have your face to the sun, a dragonfly comes too close to the water surface and falls onto it’s back. Taking in water, it struggles to right itself.
You tread to where it is and scoop it out to dry in the sun. When you get out of the pool {some time later} you see the wings are not intact and the insect can only walk in drunken circles.
Do you leave it to meet it’s end naturally or do you ‘put it out of it’s misery’?
Would you have scooped it out of the pool in the first place?
3. THE CHILD: You are in a restaurant and see a family outside. The parent's and older sibling are arguing with a pre-teen child at the back of their vehicle. It is obvious to you through the window that harsh language, facial expressions and gestures are being used.
Suddenly the Mom opens the trunk and points for the child to get in. They do and the trunk closes, while the other 3 get in the vehicle and back out.
What do you do? Anything?
