"Not many elements in our life are so fully in control as how we choose to treat other people...

 

 Honoring someone in need by giving our full attention, will usually bring kindness and concern in return. And unkindness and neglect on our part are likely to result in the same from others. We will usually elicit that which we've so thoughtfully or thoughtlessly given."  Karen Casey
