Good Neighbor

Today is Good Neighbor Day.
Every day is good neighbor day.
Imagine this . . .

You walk out your door
and you're greeted with a chorus of hello's.
You get to work
and each person says hi and asks about your morning/health.
You break for lunch
and have meaningful, peaceful conversation with a coworker.
You finish the day
and your boss thanks you and wishes you a great evening.
You go to the grocery store
where some stranger compliments your shirt.
You finish with your purchase
and are assisted to your car.
You get back home
and a local kid helps you carry in your bags.
You turn on the news
and there's nothing but heartwarming stories on.

Wouldn't that be just delicious?
It could be real.
It begins with you.
Pleasantries, courteousness, politeness,
gratitude, kindness, generosity.

If we each tried just a little harder . . .
