Courtesy - What Does It Take And How Much Does It Cost?

  • Wednesday, April 17, 2024

Someone once said, if a person pretends to be friendly with your spouse/significant other, but shuns you....then they really not a friend of your spouse. They're just attempting to play a childish divisive game. 

It cost nothing to speak when spoken too. Especially if the person comes onto your property and start conversating with your spouse or significant other. Then ignores you when you speak in passing out of simple courtesy. No matter any personal dislikes or resentments, it cost nothing to acknowledge a simple courtesy when someone speaks to you.

And some wonder why so many young folks are so messed up in the head these days. They're taking notes from messed-up-in-the-head adults.
