The Kindness of Holding Doors

"Good actions give strength to ourselves and inspire good actions in others."
~ Plato

Sometimes it's the smallest things.  Today, my daughter and I were our way to an elevator with a full grocery cart, and a gentleman very graciously waited and held the elevator doors for us.  Whether it's a door to a building or the doors to an elevator, holding doors is a very simple kindness that actually says a lot.  It tells the other person that she is acknowledged and that she matters.  And that small human connection is often enough to lift our spirits.
