Just a simple greeting.
Said to those that will accept it.
There are many things in this life that are always taken for granted.
Simple kindnesses that keep us sane and happy.
Holding the door for the person behind you.
Saying thank you.
Just being polite in general.
Sometimes we get so close to people we forget to be nice.
We forget that they still need to hear the things we say to strangers, because we are naturally polite. We need to remember to be polite to those that are close to us.
Most good relationships last longer when we remember to never forget the little things. The simple things.
You cannot take it for granted that it is implied. You bave to say it.
Just like in a long relationship. You have to remember to say I love you. And mean it.
Good friends forget to remind them how much they mean to eachother. They think it is understood. Maybe it is. But sometimes you have to express it. Yes, good friends can go years without talking and pick up were they left off. But, during that time away, how often is the other thought of or needed?
Just something to think about.
Hello.
In this age of technology, we have many ways to keep in touch.
Many of us utilize one or more of them. But it tends to broaden the gap of person to person communication. Not that it bad. If you can communicate in any form, it is better than not at all.
Once apon a time a postcard was a simple reminder that you were thought of. Very rare now.
I realize human contact is rare. Any is better than none, even electronic.
But I cannot help wanting that dinner conversation or just sitting on the couch chatting about the day. Even just being in close proximity of another human that understands and does not need to say a thing. That unspoken communication that says volumes. The look, the touch, the unspoken meaning in it all.
Communication.
A simple, Hello.
Sometimes that is all you need to remind you. You are not alone.
