[QUOTE="BlackSilver, post: 2353757, member: 22250"] You have my vote Hijinks. I agree. Recent events placed me in the position of using crutches and most recently a cane. I am not very big (5’4” and just over a 110 pounds), more often then not people would see me coming and hold the door for me. Saying thank you was a must (for me), and everyone I spoke to smiled or said something in kind. We are in a hurry, the citizens of this nation (USA), its because we are chasing something that we can never catch enough of (the all mighty dollar). It’s a pretty lame excuse, but it is the truth (at least in my mind). Those that live their lives happily- for whatever reason (being in love, enjoying what life has dealt them or what have you), tend to be much more polite and kind (in my experience). Something I do not recall reading in this thread is simply this- smile at people, nod to them when you can’t say hello, say hello to them as you walk past. Only a few times have I regretted saying something to someone (guys looking for a little action seem to think the word “hello,” also means “take me to your bed.”) We are in a position to change our world, be as kind as you can be and the person that you want to be and not the person that people perceive you to be by your outward appearance. To those of you that give blood (Harmon mentioned it)- thank you. I received some this last year, without donators I might not have made it or perhaps I would have and it just would have taken me longer to recover. If you have never given blood it only hurts a little and they give you cake afterwards or cookies. Harmon, I am doing better, thank you for asking. I am sorry about your friend, it’s a sad thing when a friendship dissolves, leave your heart open and maybe…. [/QUOTE]
