thoughtfulness

Thoughtfulness is the base for a whole list of wonderful human interactions: love, joy, loyalty, friendship, tradition, community (to name a few).
The truth is, you don’t have to spend a lot of either time, money or stress on thoughtfulness. Instead, find a way for thoughtfulness to happen naturally in your daily life – with a little planning, it can take as long or short as necessary.
Here are some pre-thoughtfulness practices to try:

• Truly do things out of love, instead of obligation.
• Really think about the person. Dwell on the reasons you love them. Think about happy times you’ve spent together.
• Make their happiness a priority.
• You can be thoughtful while standing up for your personal convictions. For instance, I hate the wastefulness of birthday parties – the excess paper, decorations and disposable dishes. It’s important to find a balance between my kids’ happiness and my environmentally conscious views.www.peaceandprojects.com/.../thoughtfulness
