So true, about being considerate. Consideration, manners, and people skills are such a great characterists a person has. As far as the emotions if we didn't have all the emotions we do, we wouldn't be human, we wouldn't know how to deal with the sad or depressing times.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your quotes they are so true.
I especially like the quote about being considerate. This speaks to how important social skills are in early childhood. Once at a meeting, the person speaking asked how many of us knew any normal functioning adults that didn't know their letters and numbers. None of us raised our hands. She then asked how many of us knew people who couldn't keep a job because they couldn't get along with people and always seemed to be frustrated. We all raised our hands. The degrees are great but social skills must be learned early in life. Thanks for your quotes. I enjoyed them.
