- What makes life so interesting are the risks you take and the people you meet. I've lived the majority of my life fearing the consequences of risks. Well, that's what the twenties are for! I am going to write about my trials and tribulations of being a twentysomething year old in this big world, trying to figure it all out. It's going to be a topsy turvy ride, but that's what being in your twenties is all about.

DSD #6: Say Thank You to a MTA Employee
As I was walking to the exit at my subway stop yesterday, I noticed an MTA employee sweeping the platform. She looked so sad. I thought about what a thankless job it is. I am a strong anti-litter person and never litter, especially not in the subways. But the amount of garbage that is thrown on the subway tracks is an abomination! People do not clean up after themselves and have this mentality that "somebody else will pick it up". Well, I saw that "somebody else" yesterday (I hardly ever see MTA employees cleaning to be honest!) and as I was walking towards her, I silently said, "please look up, please look up!" And just as I was about to go through the turnstile, she looked up right at me. I said to her with a warm smile and said, "thank you". She smiled and continued to sweep.
