The Kindness of Being Considerate

"One who is kind is sympathetic and gentle with others.  He is considerate of others' feelings and courteous in his behavior.  He has a helpful nature.  Kindness pardons others' weaknesses and faults.  Kindness is extended to all -- to the aged and to young, to animals, to those low of station as well as the high."
~ Ezra Taft Benson

I recently called a senior colleague at work -- something I rarely do.  When he answered, I asked if he had a couple of minutes.  He said he was heading out to a meeting, but gave me a couple of other times that same day when I could reach him.  I thought it was incredibly considerate of him to pick up when he so easily could have not.
