Letter: Take time for a kind word

Whatever happened to “thank you,” “my apology,” “you look great,” “love your outfit,” “sharp tie,” etc.?

It’s such a me, me, me society, a compliment or considerate word to a friend or stranger is virtually non-existent.

If one only realized how important and appreciated it is to hear a kind word.

This letter is a request to open up and give some sugar to our folks. It’ll make you feel wonderful and the recipient even better.
