ETIQUETTE & MANNERS 101: Be Agreeable Always
I wouldn't really be kind to people for my own good, rather out of respect. Although this article has a positive message, I didn't like that it also showed what one would gain from being kind.
A beautiful quote I had read somewhere best describes how manners should be seen;
"Manners are a sensitive awareness of the feelings of others. If you have that awareness, you have good manners, no matter what fork you use"

People these days are lacking in manners and empathy, mainly because they put themselves first. I can’t say I’m not one of them at times especially when I’m being moody and don’t feel like doing something, I can definitely be the rudest person. This must change, I need to be more empathetic.
ReplyDeleteYes me too. I always say what I should be doing, but when the time comes, I do whatever seems easier to me...
DeleteIt reminds me of that episode in "Leave It To Beaver" when the great aunt visited and all they did was complain about not being able to go out with their friends...
