I love the story of the man who gets on the bus and says to the driver, “What are the people in this city like?” The bus driver asks him, “What were the people in your last city like?” The man replies, “Rude, unreasonable and ungrateful”. The bus driver said, “Then I think you will find them the same here”.
The next person gets on the bus and asks the driver, “What are the people in this city like?” The bus driver asks,
“What were the people in your last city like?” The person replies, “Warm, loving and kind.” The bus driver said, “I think you will find them the same here.”
I really do think it is all about how you view people. I Iook for kindness everywhere I go.
I checked into a hotel last week after a very long and exhausting travel day. Syed, the young man at the front desk asked if I had eaten supper. I replied, “A little but I am too tired to
worry about that.” Moments after arriving at my room, this kind young man delivered a plate of food from their breakfast area. So kind.
