What’s the trait you value most about yourself?
I always try to be kind to other people. You never know what someone else is going through, so it is best to be nice to them. Treat someone the way you want to be treated, that’s what my Gran used to say when I was little.
Sometimes though, I have found, that despite my best intentions, I may not be as kind as I think. It could be because of my anxiety, because I can get quite ‘nippy’ when I am anxious. I’m usually irritated by myself, but I can react to other people. Not on purpose, but it still happens. And then I feel bad for being rude, no matter how unintentional it was.
But effort matters, smile a people, a wee ‘hello’ can make a difference. Small positive interactions can be a turning point in someone’s day. And I think it’s something so simple, everyone should try.
