Consideration..

How often do we disregard other people feelings without even thinking about how they feel? How often do we take for granted that the person we are talking to understands what we are truly saying? How often do we take the time to explain to the other person how we feel, or what we feel? How often do we speak to the other person in a rude way and disregard their emotions? Well, the reason why I asked is because we live in a society where everything is fast pace and we do not take the time to consider other people feelings.

We as people walk past people each day and do not speak, let alone become friendly or glance a smile towards them. Don't worry, because I find myself doing the same thing at times and think about it afterwards, saying to myself "well they walked past me and didn't say anything so why should I." Well, two wrongs do not make a right and someone has to be the mature minded person. However, do you know there are people in this world that care if you are kind, compassionate, courteous and speak, smile and greet them.

Being kind to a stranger would mean the world to them, but yet we take for granted how society has molded each of us to take life for granted and not be considerate that the person we meet might be the last time we see,speak or smile to. That person maybe experiencing life or death encounters and one word or smile may mean the difference to them.

To all my readers, take the time out to be considerate, kind, and compassion to each and everyone you meet. Take the time to smile, even if the person do not smile back. Take the time to speak, even if the person do not speak back. Doing these simple things are reflections of the heart and GOD knows your heart and you will be blessed in the end.

Think about it..
