It's very sad that there are a lot of people in our society today who have no idea how to behave and show respect for anyone or anything. This morning I decided to go out for a 'power walk' because I need to get more exercise in so I thought I would go around Castle Green.
I know the park keeper fairly well and the other workers who spend a lot of time keeping the park free of litter and tending the plants and trees so that it is a pleasant place to go. This morning however, I was shocked to see that someone had trashed a large area of beautiful daffodils and narcissi behind the children's playground. These mindless vandals just don't know what beauty is and neither do they appreciate the hours of work it took to plant the bulbs so that the display could be enjoyed by everyone. The cost also comes out of our council tax but then they probably don't pay any so it wouldn't bother them.
I'm not sure if there are any cctv cameras around that part, I will have a look next time, but there were three cycle mounted police riding around so maybe their presence will prevent the vandals from trashing any other areas of these spring flowers.
Hi Grandma,
ReplyDeleteThat's sad news indeed. Why anyone would want to destroy something so beautiful is beyond my understanding too.
I do believe in kharma though and do feel the vandals will have something just as nasty coming back their way.
Hi Robin!
ReplyDeleteYes, I agree with you because they will get their just desserts eventually and I'm sure they won't like it.
