“Be kind to strangers”, my mother told me.
“You never know who some one is until you know them.”
I used to think that was just my mama teaching me kindness, least did I know that today I would meet the most mean person I have ever met. This man did not care who I was, it felt like he was treating me like some unwanted basement mouse. What helped me was I am comfortable in my skin and within I was standing tall, outwardly I was dressed professionally in one of my power suits. I am well groomed, so I knew how to hold my reigns; while my mind was working and I thought in the old days in the village, elders used to teach children to treat strangers with all honor and respect because they assumed a stranger might be an angel visiting. If I was an angel carrying a blessing I would have definitely withheld it from this man.
Isn’t it surprising that in our world today we have mastered networking to some extend but there are some professionals who feel like they own the whole world when they are in an office or holding a title, but as the old saying goes, each dog has it’s day it is true that a man can be on the driving seat one moment and the next moment the very man he looked down upon will be his master, so be careful and treat all man like they are royalty because they are…in their territory.
"Life is a gift, and it offers us the privilege, opportunity, and
responsibility to give something back by becoming more."
Anthony Robbins
