Day 12 - Common Courtesies

Courtesy isn't so "common" these days - but, wow, can it make a difference.

Yesterday a visitor to the blog shared a beautiful story in her comment about how strangers reached out in little ways and made a difference during a challenging day.

Today, let's all look for an opportunity to hold a door for someone, let someone else get in the elevator first, or offer to hold a crying baby so the mom can dig through her bag for a binky. Let's step back and gesture to someone that they can go ahead of us in line at the bank or grocery store.

Even if you spend most of the day at home, see if you can find a way to offer extra courtesy to others in your family. Then please share your ideas!

Blessings!
