Jessica Figueroa: Hey listeners, Cindy Marlar here from Just for Today. What we're talking about today is we are going to make everyone that we come across feel important. There is a teaching that talks about thinking about everyone you see. They are wearing a sign on their forehead that says F I. And that stands for make me feel important. So now, just for today, everyone we come across, we're going to make them feel important. How do you make someone feel important? Ask them questions. Follow up on something. Maybe you knew they went out of town. How was your trip? Maybe ask them about their kids. Maybe ask them about the thing they were worried about at work. But just for today, everyone we encounter, whether it's the person serving our food or delivering our mail or picking up our trash or the teacher at our kids' school, just for today, we are going to make them feel important. Maybe you bring them a little homemade bookmark. Maybe you stop at the coffee shop and get them something. But the most important thing we can do is make them feel important with our words by making eye contact. So just for today, everybody, I want us out there making everyone we come into contact with feel important. And then let's see how we feel at the end of the day. I'll talk to you tomorrow.
