The Kindness of Interest

"The true secret of happiness lies in taking a genuine interest in all the details of daily life."
~  William Morris

I recently had lunch with one of my college housemates.  A warm and gracious woman, she is always interested in others.  When we sat down for lunch, her first question was about my children.  She asked about each one and remembered what we had talked about each of them in previous conversations.  She has an incredible ability to connect with others and a significant part of it, I'm sure, is her interest in what really matters to the other person.
