By reminding us that the world isn’t always so bad – that there is still hope for humanity. We receive in return, what we put out into the universe. By acting with kindness and decency, we invite it back to enrich our own lives in turn.

By offering them the same treatment that I would expect to receive in return. I listen, I am patient, I offer kindness. This is mutually fulfilling as it leaves the other person feeling validated and respected. Hopefully, they are then more willing to offer the same.

By taking time to slow down and appreciate them in the moment. Stopping to smell the roses for a little while rather than being lost in my own head.
