There is crime and violence all over the world. Even so, recently and for a while now, there has been a surge in violence and crime here in New York city, especially on the subway.
It had gotten so bad that I stopped taking the train for a few months until things cooled down.
I limited my workplaces to locations I could get to without having to use the subway.
The rise has stepped back up and people are out of control, however, we cannot let sick people hinder us from moving on with our lives.
Yes, we must definitely take precaution and watch our backs when we are out in public and everywhere else because people also break in to people’s homes too.
Always listen to your gut and that inner voice of spirit. Do not fear anyone or anything, and continue to trust in God for ultimate protection.
We have gone to work and continue to take care of our business so I resumed taking the train again a month and a half ago.
I was one who was always on the go traveling everywhere as a workaholic.
Aside from the crime rate, I was already tired of running from here to there after doing it for so many years.
Now, my commute is very convenient and I am satisfied with being able to slow down from navigating to all around.
I had the energy and had seen and experienced a lot of pleasant and inspirational things, but I am getting older, and no longer desire to run like I used to within that same fashion.
I enjoy my jobs, I enjoy my grocery shopping, and I enjoy handling my affairs. I also enjoy resting back and taking time out to relax.
New York city has its share of crazy and dangerous people. So does many other places. I am a native New Yorker and I still love New York. I plan to live here for the rest of my life if God is willing to keep me here. I have traveled through other states yet New York is the place for me even if certain other states are cleaner and cheaper to live at.
There are beautiful safe places to reside in within New York.
Every area of the world has their negative and positive communities. After all, it is not the areas itself it is the people within the areas that make circumstances bad.
