What a World? What a World?

WARNING: Contains moments of Sarcasm!

I've thought it before, but it hit me again Monday night.... What kind of world do we live in? It's scary and crazy, mixed up and falling apart. Let me back up a second.
So, Monday night we are driving back from Gilbert where we spent our wonderful Labor Day. We were about 45minutes from home, but kinda in the middle of nowhere, when we got a flat tire. (Now let me side note and say that we have been very blessed to never have a flat away from home before this.) So we pull off the road go to get the spare and our flashlight doesn't have batteries. Totally my fault, I will take all blame for that one. However, this is when I start to get a little frustrated. We just happened to pull off I-10 about 50 feet in front of a tow truck. Silly me I thought that they would pull up a little and see if we needed any help! What was I thinking? Just because that is what we do if we see someone in need of assistance. Who am I to think that that courtesy would be returned? No. We (when I say we I mean Chad) spent ten minutes just trying to get the spare out from under the SUV, because he couldn't see but for the headlights of oncoming traffic. Then used those same passing lights to place the jack! The fun part was getting the spare back on when we couldn't see the bolts! All in all it took about half an hour to change our silly tire.
I just couldn't believe that no one even slowed down let alone stopped to offer assistance. All we really wanted was a little illumination! After starting off again, I started thinking, "Would I really have wanted someone to stop?" There are so many creepy people out there. Maybe we were better off not having to worry about that part of our dilemma. Oh I don't know. How sad that I still can't decide which way we would have been better off! But, you have to know that the flashlight received new batteries as soon as we got home.
Life is such a learning experience!
