I was taught to be courteous and complement people in an honest positive way. We are living in a fast, over sensitive, digital world and forget to slowdown.
I try to be a faithful observer of life and as time goes by, I am glad to see and listen to people still asking with a (please) and responding with (you’re welcome) greeting with (good morning) or (hello) and (good night) or (good bye.) But, saying nothing at the middle.
Saying nothing at the middle? Let me explain; The other day I went groceries shopping, when I arrived at the cashiers and as I was paying , I was asked how I was doing and my response was “very good thank you, but how are you doing after been for hours on you’re feet and still be able to keep a nice smile”. She stared at me with a pause and stated: We are train to be courteous with customers, very rarely we get a complement especially after dealing with rude people.
She finishes by adding “You know I don’t feel tired anymore thanks to you” Her words melt my heart, like I am sure I melt hers.
People work hard in different ways and it is sad how we have neglected to complement each other.
So, smile and complement each other,
By Mardo…

This writer has said much in few words. As simple as it sounds, most of don’t do this in daily life, even to the people we love, much less to strangers. And when the writer quotes the cashier as saying “I don’t feel tired anymore” just think about the last time someone was nice to you, complementing you, inquiring about you, and smiling at the same time. We take those close to us for granted and we scurry by those we don’t know, even though sometimes we are conducting business with this stranger. This writer presents a speck smaller than one drop of water in the ocean but look at what some water did after the drops multiplied, flowing through Arizona eons ago–the Grand Canyon is the result, so don’t underestimate your ability to change a person in a second who then might change another, and so on, and so on.

Mardo, I definitively agree with you and please allowed me to complement you on you’re words.
I am looking forward to read more.
