Bring back the Standard!

For a while now I have preaching about what
the world should be like. Now I am attempting
to do something about it. On the old Facebook
I am attempting to create a new standard.
For too long people have been, well for lack
of a better word, arses. What ever happened
to being nice? Not because you have to or
because it will get you something.
Just nice for the sake of being nice. Saying
please and thank you should be a given, not
an afterthought. If I had a dollar for every
person who was shocked when I said those 3
simple words I'd be rich.

But thats not all I'm talking about. Remember
back when holding a door for someone wasnt a
hassle but the right thing to do? When someone
had something heavy to lift you'd give them a
hand? What happened? When did we become such a
group of selfish people? When did simple everyday
nice things become such hard work? If we all made
a point of doing 1 good deed a day we'd make the
world a billion times better. How hard is it to
hold a door for someone? It takes no time out of
your day and you know that person may not appreciate
it to your face but later on they will realise and
it might make them do something a little differently
too!

Its all about snowball people. If you do something
good for someone hopefully they will notice and the
next time they will do something good for someone
else. I mean we can only hope. Simple things like
this can change the world, We cant just sit idly by
and watch the world go to hell. Let's make a change.
Lets create a new standard. Join the facebook page.
Share stories, give people ideas. Or dont join the
page, just make sure you help that old lady across
the road you help someone carry their bags of shopping,
say please and thank you.

Its the least you can do!
Bring back the standard!
