I went to the grocery store in the early morning. While I was approaching to the entrance door, I saw many customers inside the store, but the entrance door was closed. I went to the other side of the entrance door, which is the main door. There were around 30 people with a shopping cart waiting in front of the door. I saw a sign saying their senior hour from 6 to 7 a.m. The people who came behind me had white hair could go into the store. The store worker did not request elders their age. All of them had white hair. I thought to myself, if my hair was covered by white hair, the store worker might have me go through the door. I am glad I don’t have much white hair in my head yet.
All the other younger generation customers had to wait at the door. I needed to wait for 20 minutes until their special senior hour ended.
When I entered the store, there were a whole bunch of old people shopping. It was very hard for everybody to move around inside the store. I saw many empty shelves here and there. I also saw customers with full of shopping cars waiting in long waiting-lines for cashiers.
All of a sudden, a gasp of sadness came into me. I got emotional and almost burst into tears. Maybe I sensed other people’s sad feeling. It is sad to see something like this in all the stores.
