As I sat in a meeting room full of sales people this weekend I was reminded how mean and unkind some people can be.
I witnessed a well seasoned professional sales man in his early sixties walk very gently over to three young ladies and compliment them on their outfits ; you see they were preparing to leave to attend a fun filled evening at a western themed event hall, and they had on cowboy boots and hats and were looking the part. But what really was very shocking to me was the reaction that these young ladies had to his kind compliment. I watched as these young ladies turned their bodies in their chairs to the opposite direction, snickered and then ignored the man. I could see in his facial expression that he was taken back by their coolness to his gesture, and he quietly moved from the room. As an encourager it broke my heart to see such rudeness to a kind man and it has been on my mind as I try to monitor my own reactions to others. As we go through our daily grind let us be mindful of our treatment of others. The good Book speaks about it like this..”do unto others as you would have done unto you.”
Be Blessed….
