Giving up my seat
I believe in giving up my seat for pregnant women, also even disabled people, for example elderly. My grandmother taught me that. I was 8 years old when I was on the train to Chicago when she first told me. I was very disrespectful and I refused to get up from my seat. Dati, my grandmother, told me one more time “get up from your seat now, you're able to walk normally, you're not in pain like they are right now.” No sooner after I got told off I finally got up and told the old lady that she could have my seat.

This is one of the rewarding things about my experience “Always giving up our seats” means doing something we don't really want to do, because we want to be able to sit down, so we're not standing up drained . Or our legs hurt and we don't want to stand up. I always have to remind myself it’s not just about me. It is also about other people in the world. I feel when I do this nice gesture, it shows me who I really am and that I should do more small things. A couple of steps could change a person's whole world.
