Courteous or Curt

Aug 24, 09....Mankind appears to take great pride in being busy. I hear it everyday because I'm a recruiter part time (of which I also take great pride). My friend Chris has a great question for most that espouse such ominous schedules. "What do you like the best about that." I use it all the time now and get a royal kick out the the reactions from everyone. Do you think maybe I might have had one lonely soul answer succinctly with a philosophy that exudes rational thought? Nope. Perhaps then we should reconsider how we are spending our time. Now, I complement this supposition with the notion that way too many of us are not taking the time deserved when conducting normal human relations and it's impacting the quality of our lives. So, next time that we are waiting in line, or speaking with someone whom needs a listening ear, or witnessing a driver that needs a lane change, or identifying an elder that could use your chair, let's do the right thing. We need to reverse the trend. It all starts with yours truly including I.
