I came across the following quote on Facebook that caused me to stop and think: “No matter how educated, talented, rich or cool you believe you are, how you treat people ultimately tells all.” In other words, how you treat others tells those around you who you really are. If you treat others kindly, you’ll become known as someone others want to get to know better and spend more time with. If you treat others rudely, you’ll be labelled as someone to be avoided. This is why kind people have more fun and full lives—they have lots of company travelling through life with them. Self-absorbed, rude people on the other hand, tend to lead rather lonely lives that are devoid of fun and fullness. Fun and fullness vs. loneliness—the choice is ours.
