Spend a day looking for the good in everyone you encounter as if watching a sunrise over the ocean for the first time.
You can bow to others with a smile from your eyes, holding the door for them, or giving them your undivided attention.
When you bow to others you bow to yourself... because are are all part of the same one thing, what we call "universe".

Multiple Communities
I have two pictures and two thoughts for this Friday 9/2
I’m just a few hours into my vacation at my summer home. My neighbor, Colonel Cal Phillips Retired, stopped in to see me. I didn’t get to see him the last time I was up so we both enjoyed catching up and making plans for a sundowner. Before he left, he mentioned that his internet wasn’t working and would I mind if he used my WiFi connection. Of course I wouldn’t mind, I would do anything for that guy… Then he wondered if I could come over and get it working on his laptop for him. ?
** We belong to multiple communities, work, home, vacation, planet…. I really enjoy that.
My second story (and picture) was from my quick shopping trip to the store at the town next to me. I was sorta stuck in line while the cashier and the customer exchanged their favorite recipes. The conversation then turned to how good the New Mexico green chili is this year (it really is the best). About that time, another cashier came over to get me.
** Before I got too perturbed (I wanted to get home), I realized that this is really the way things are supposed to be. We rush from meeting to meeting, then soccer, then dinner, then to the store…
Enjoy your weekend, immerse yourself in your community, and slow down.
