POWER OF COURTESY
A friend shared this word with me today, at first, I glazed right over it, until I realized the most basic importance of courtesy.

Dictionary.com basically defines this word as:
n.
Polite Behaviour.
A polite gesture or remark

Seriously, read it again. So, it's the most simplest form of polite behaviour and consideration you can express to others.

It's a trait to be un-learned.
I know I've been inconsiderate many times to others by simply not returning calls, leaving them clueless... usually because I tell myself I'm too busy to deal with them at that time. Truth is... I can tell them that I'm busy, and not leave them clueless. [Lesson-in-process for me] It's not right to leave them feeling mistreated and ignored. I must shift my energy to the state where I'm more balanced and more generally aware of the people I interact with and their needs.

When in-actions hurt.
The above lesson was merely a by-product of me sinking my teeth into the word and concept. Initially, I applied the word to someone very close to me, and realized that there was a growing imbalance of courtesy or consideration in general. It's important to be thoughtful to each other in a relationship. We must be willing to learn to treat each other with respect, and then actually take it to heart, or else we should consider ourselves self-centered and rude.
