CARING AND COMPASSION

1. Are you ever mean, cruel, or insensitive?

2. Do you treat people with kindness and generosity?

3. Are you charitable?

4. Do you give of yourself for the benefit of others?

5. Are you responsive to the concerns and needs of others?

6. Would you inconvenience yourself for another person?

7. How do you feel when people show they care about you?

And my final thought from me to you is this:

Caring is not just a way of feeling, its a way of behaving.... so....What can you do to make this a more caring world?

Send personal e-mails instead of just forwards. Make special phone calls of encouragement. Make coffee dates and offer to pay ... it's cheap and everyone enjoys it. Big Smile [:D]
