Thats the life.....( 1 )... is she mad?

Hi shibham, not sure if I understand your story well, is she mad or is she doing her job? What kind of job requires her to throw stones at bushes? Is she building something? lol Or are you grateful to her for clearing the road for others to walk? Whatever her intentions, since it's such a hot day, maybe someone should give her a drink of water, she might get a heat stroke.

A woman in America working at such a mundane job, ( without protection from the elements) such as throwing stones from a road to the ditch, would be taken away by the authorities, to a Police station where she would be given a sobriety test to determine if she was sober. If she passed this test she would next be tested at a mental Hospital to determine if she was in her right mind. It would seem that she was suffering from a debilitating disease!

Hi shibham, sorry to say there is a bit contradiction in your story. You stated in your post as But, i saw a mad woman but in your comment to Cookie you denied she was not and again elsewhere you said she was completely mad. Now the question is if in the scorching heat she was pelting stones all sweating she must be really mad and I guess no one appointed there for that job. and in such situation the question of humanism hardly holds water since you can expect anything from a demented person. what is heat and what is cold for one such? But one thing is sure that we really not mad people are sometime worse than the mentally imbalanced ones. Take care.

dear bhai, She maybe mad,crazy or what,but,she done what the sane people cannot do. People who thinks they are in sane,sometimes are fools compared to crazy/mad people around us. We learn from people which the society called crazy. Crazy as what we were addressing them,but,they are more fortunate than us. Coz,people who were in much sanity were doing crazy things more than those crazy people were doing.

Hiya shibham, Could well be that she might have hurt her foot on a Stone and with the heat and the frustration she might just have took it out on the stones. The heat when it´s as hot as that can make People do things they would not normally do. The Spanish are more hot tempered they lose their rag over nothing so I would say she is not on her own. I had a Woman walking behind me in the Shop the other Day talking away to herself this is on the increase it might just be the pressure that is being put on all of us. We had a Bus strike here on one of the hottest Days of the year and there was a lot of frustration in the faces of people that I met on the way. I walk most places so it did not bother me in the least except for the heat. Here there is too much pavement and not enough grass. When I go to the Shops I walk on the grass slopes all I can I love it and if I can get away with just wearing my flip flops instead of shoes I do that too because it cools you down tremendously. The only trouble with that is you have to walk up very steep slopes because they are part of the Mountains here. Very warm weather we are having here too but I endure it like most others. Nothing lasts 100 years.

Hello Shibham! I think important is that she can really do that.... was good for her and make her fell ok.

Hi Shibham, I too have similar doubts like you. I have been watching a man in the bus stop almost everyday; on look he is not normal. He worn two sweaters and his cloths are very much dirty. Now the surprise is, here the temperature is around 45 and in evening too hot waves are there. (for the last two days there was raining and there is no hot waves). We are on simple dress and can’t afford the heat even after 6.pm. This person is walking on the streets everyday under the sun with his woolen dress. He made me to think like you, how can he tolerate the heat? I am not sure whether his imbalanced mind is not able to recognize the hot weather. I too don’t have an answer for your query.

Hi Shibham, She was getting the job done that she needed to do but I would have worn a hat in that heat so maybe the heat was making her appear mad but as long as the road was cleared of stones it doesn't really matter who is employed to do it eh! Huggles. Ellie :D

I guess it depends if she was employed to clear the road or whether she took it upon herself to sweat out there. In either case she should have been wearing at least a hat for protection from the strong sun. If she took it upon herself to get the job done; who knows if she is mad? She provided a service for others and did positive things. She may have her own very valid reasons for being where she was or she may well be indeed as mad as a hatter!

Maybe mad in the way of angry. There have been times when I have been so discouraged or angry that I wanted to scream or hit something. If an onlooker saw me do something like that well...they would think me nuts too....LOL.. I think that sometimes people just have enough and it might not be at the best of times that they get it off their chests. Maybe a case of temporary insanity...lol.

Hi sibham, the woman could be leading a hard life in the midst of elite people. I happened that the job she was assigned to do was to throw those stones...not sure she was a mad woman because we don't know how many stones that she had to throw from the midst of the road to the bushes and who ordered her to do the work and was she paid for it? Instead of branding her mad, why not we positively perceive her existence as that of a destitute woman. She tried to be diligent and that might be the only available job for her to earn her living and she might live in a squatters nearby that place. She got used to the condition that she stood the heat of the sun.She might not even realise she was watched by you.

Yeahhh, she's mad. I wonder what made her decide to all of a sudden start throwing stones...? :o

I dont know what exactly was happening....I dont j=know how the lady looked...whas she mad??? or was she a worker who was given th task to crean the pavement?....But yes we as human beings come to a decission in an instand when we look at anyone. i would have thought tthe same if i was you....what a pity on human being.
