Thought for the day - "Have Consideration For Others "

Have Consideration For Others 


One day, a ten year old boy went to an ice-cream shop, sat at a table and asked the waitress, How much is an ice-cream cone”

She said, "Seventy five cents.”

The boy started counting the coins he had in his head. Then he asked how much a small cup of ice-cream was.

The waitress impatiently replied, "Sixty five cents”.

The boy said, "I will have the small ice-cream cup.”

He had his ice-cream, paid the bill and left. When the waitress came to pick up the empty plate, she was touched. Underneath were ten one-cent coins as tip.

The little boy had consideration for the waitress before he ordered his ice-cream. He showed sensitivity and caring. He thought of others before himself.

If we all thought like the little boy, we would have a great place to live. Show consideration, courtesy, and politeness. Thoughtfulness shows a caring attitude.

Thought for the day

"Everybody can be great...because anybody can serve. You don't have to have a college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love."

-- Martin Luther King, Jr.

"Among those whom I like or admire, I can find no common denominator, but among those whom I love, I can: all of them make me laugh."
