Today's Agenda……..

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Referral Group Incorporated

I am not great at achieving long range goals that often involve large commitments of time and task. Day by day is more my style. Today I am thinking about kindness and how easy it is, and how good it makes me feel. I read something on Facebook recently that I can't forget. A couple was driving and the man waved at everyone he saw. When his companion asked him why he did this, he replied that he had recently read that numerous people who had committed suicide said if if even one person had acknowledged them, they might have been persuaded to continue to try. Kindness is simple and often matters more than you would think. Today, I choose kindness.

I always try to be a source of friendliness to everyone, strangers included, when I am out and about.  A kind word and a smile, simple acknowledgement of others, does go a long way to making the world a better place.

Sheila kindness has been on my mind lately as well. There are so many folks that appreciate just a little smile or nice word. It seems like I got so busy and I was forgetting to add a little spice to all I meet throughout the day. My Mom was an expert at kindness and it is so important. Cheers!  Happy New Year!

Sheila- you just never know when that smile you share or a "Good morning" can make someone's day.

Kindness is always the best choice.  I go out of my way to choose it too.  Sometimes to my own detriment, but I'll keep doing it.

Morning Sheila I also had heard that one.  We get so involved with our daily routine or life we don't notice people around us.  Sad but true.

Donald has a harder time always choosing it.  But I guess when you work with people who profess to hate you every single day it could get hard.
