Message of the Day: There is ALWAYS time to say Thank You!

Good Morning,

 

We live in a fast paced, never ending, action filled world.

 

I know, nothing you didn’t already know.

 

While we try to tread water and keep up. In doing so there are plenty of opportunities to forget or overlook the small, yet important things in life.

 

So we lose the time to stop and smell the flowers. Worse, we lose the human interaction we once had.

 

Today, when coming back from lunch, I saw a stream of people coming out of the elevators, into the lobby and heading out to the street, holding their blackberry’s up close to their faces.

 

They were tuned out of the world, and tuned into whatever was on the screens. They did not talk to each other, look at each other, smile at each other, they just looked into the small screen.

 

More and more people are getting ‘connected’ and losing touch with human interaction.

 

Where does that end?

 

Do we just stop talking to each other and just plug into some always on digital world?

 

Hell no. Not for me.

 

I find the time to say hello. To say thank you. To give someone a compliment.

 

And if I can’t find the time, I MAKE the time.

 

I could get some more work done on a spreadsheet, respond to a few emails, etc., or I could invest some time pouring myself into helping others.

 

There is ALWAYS time to say thank you.

 

And if you haven’t and you know you need to, then DO IT.

 

DO IT NOW!

 

Don’t lose your soul to modern electronics and the endless rat race. Hold on to your humanity and INTERACT with others who are right in front of you.

 

Rant over.

 

Enjoy!
