Oh, oh, and the door holding, too!

I always try to hold the door for people, but when they just
brush past me without thanking me, it makes me want to say
"You're welcome" which I have done a few times.

It doesn't matter if you are in a nasty mood, two words are
not that hard to get out. Say it, practice it, "Thank you." Heck,
you don't even have to smile if it hurts that bad, but at least
be polite when someone does something nice for you.

When in traffic and someone lets you in or out, are you in so
much pain or so self absorbed that you cannot acknowledge their
kindness? A smile, a wave, mouth the words "Thank you." You know,
when I do something nice and people don't at least look my way, I
wish I had magic powers to take it back.

Good grief, people. We all live in this small world. Is it going to hurt
if we're nice to one another?

Wow, this 'getting it out' feels good! Too bad I'm singing to the band.
LOL
