Notations From the Grid (Weekly Edition): #RandomThoughts

Please enjoy these thoughts courtesy of Jonathan Lockwood Huie which we hope our community enjoys as our journey of service continues which underscores our sense of the mission we have undertaken: 

It comes down to the way you treat people.
When you treat people with dignity and respect all the time,
you can work through anything.
- John Bacon

I never considered a difference of opinion
in politics, in religion, in philosophy,
as cause for withdrawing from a friend.
- Thomas Jefferson 

Be modest, be respectful of others, try to understand.

- Lakhdar Brahimi

There is overwhelming evidence that the higher the level of self-esteem,

the more likely one will be to treat others with respect,

kindness, and generosity.

- Nathaniel Branden

Every human being, of whatever origin,

of whatever station, deserves respect.

We must each respect others even as we respect ourselves.

- U. Thant

Respect Even Those With Whom You Vehemently Disagree. 

There is magic in respecting others.

Respect customers, vendors, bosses, employees, co-workers.

Respect parents, spouses, sons, daughters.

Respect the trash collector, the mayor, the bank teller, the truck driver. - Jonathan Lockwood Huie
