Small people live in small worlds- we ALL want the best for ourselves (unless we are saints- and I'm not- and even THEY want the best for themselves, it's just a different "saintly" kind of best) but I think most of us don't want to grab the best if it means we have to squash a bunch of other people in the process. But your lady didn't care. She may have had other, horrible things going on in her life and that was the last straw (I've had a few times like that) OR she may just be a bitch. I know it is a hard thing to balance, the getting and the restraint- and sometimes I feel I deny my children by holding them back from greed when other children are not being held back- but when I think about who I am (who I think I am, who I want to be) I think if I err I would rather it be on the side of restraint and kindness and moderation (in 3d- no promises HERE for goodness sake)- because I make a lot of errors when I am NOT thinking about things and when it DOES come to mind to try to be a better person I figure I better heed that little voice- 'cause sometimes it isn't around when I need it. It isn't a good place to be in when little things like a child's part in a church play set you off like that. Sounds like Hell to me.
