The Subway May Not Be Safe
<p>I’ve been riding it since I was a kid growing up in the sixties. Even then, when my memories lead me to believe the world was a safer place to live, I was taught to be on high alert. My <a href="https://joannetombrakos.com/six-personal-branding-tips-learned-mother/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">mother</a> showed me the proper way to hold my handbag and would remind me to always keep it zippered so no one could slip their hand in and steal my wallet. She advised me never to stand too close to the edge of the platform in case someone ran by and tried to push me forward onto the tracks. She raised me to be kind to others but also warned me that not everyone I would encounter would be a nice person so I needed to be aware of my surroundings and use my instincts.</p>
