Wow, Imagine giving and receiving this on a regular basis!

“...so i will greet you
in a way
all loved things
are meant to be greeted

with a tear in my heart
and a poem in my eye.” 
― Sanober KhanTurquoise Silence

This morning a dozen people said hello to me in a dozen different ways. What an interesting exercise, paying attention to greetings; me to others and others to me... it is hard to stay conscious and connect when our minds are full of our own very important stuff!
Here are some of the quotes that also stuck to me

“Good Morning! Good Afternoon! Good Night! These are not just mere greetings.
They are powerful blessings, setting the best vibration for the day. Hence, whether it is morning, afternoon or night, make sure that you say your greeting right!” 
― Franco Santoro 
“May we greet each other with a smile, hug and speak kind words.”
