Just Ask Elizabeth: Thoughts on Everyday Kindness

Dear Elizabeth,

I witnessed kindness in the grocery store yesterday. One man allowed another man who had far fewer items than he did to go ahead of him. The second man beamed and thanked him profusely. It seems that we should all be this kind. Thoughts on everyday kindness?

Dear Seeing Kindness in Scranton,

I agree. I always allow a person with fewer items, who might be walking with a cane, or even a mom struggling with her kids go ahead of me. We should always be kind and considerate to others. It is simply the right thing to do, and makes me feel great to give someone else a brighter day.
