CONSIDERATION … THAT’S THE NAME OF THE GAME.
[Sounds like the Bobby Darin song “Multiplication”]
Anyway, we’ve been examining the opportunities to be considerate of other drivers and, in turn, receive consideration back from them. But there are plenty of other places we interact with others, without the anonymity of our tinted windows. Hopefully, we’ve already developed these habits at home and at work, where we see those people every day. What about elsewhere? Let’s examine a few.
This part’s going to sound like “I’ve been everywhere, man …..”. There’s the supermarket, the airport, the amusement park, the bus. There’s the train, the plane, the billiards parlor, the bar. How about the ski slope, the ballpark, the stadium, the gym? There’s the sidewalk, the park, the movie, the race track, and the trail. There’s the campground, the national park, the mall, and the stores.
As you see, the list could go on and on. You’ll think of a dozen more that I haven’t mentioned. And, at each place, the mes-sage will be the same. If we all are showing consideration, then we all will, also, be experiencing it. That’s when life is worth it.
That how I see it. Now go forth and mingle.
