Blog about the piece:
Have you ever come across the term"southern
hospitality"? With relatives in Georgia, Florida, Kentucky and Arkansas
I can say that I not only have heard but experienced the term many
times. Southern hospitality refers to the welcoming
and good natured characteristics of the south. My favorite aspect of
southern hospitality is the willingness to embrace and even care for a
stranger. Sometimes I look around and feel a growing distance between
the people I see. I feel as though our virtual world often takes the
place of real community interaction. But what if we turned that around?
What if, through simple acts of kindness, we began to embody southern
hospitality to its fullest. We could build a positive environment for
those close to us and also contribute to the well being and greater good
of perfect strangers. I encourage you to try taking small steps toward
simple acts of kindness... smile when someone walks by, give a gift,
give a hug, give encouragement. It doesn't take a lot to spread
goodness. The small things matter.
