Say Please, Say Thank You: The Respect We Owe One Another

Description

“This rousing, witty guide could help make the world a nicer, more civilized, more humane place.”–Publishers Weekly In a world where rudeness is the norm and acts of kindness often make people more suspicious than grateful, who hasn’t yearned for a return to good old-fashioned courtesy? In this gentle, inspiring book, Donald McCullough reminds us of the power that we have to make the world a better place–simply by being polite. He helps us spot opportunities to treat others with respect–not because they have “earned it,” but because they deserve it as fellow human beings. From saying please and thank you, to keeping a secret, to picking up the check at dinner, it’s the little decisions in life that make the big difference–helping us to grow more gracious, and to give, and receive, life’s simple but essential gifts.
