Good morning, a simple phrase that I find used less often now. Others like good afternoon, good evening, how are you, good day, hello, have a great day and others are all becoming less shared.

People wave to each other less often also. I used to play a little game by making eye contact with people I’d be passing walking the streets of DC on my way to work from the parking garage. I’d smile and node and see how many would smile or node back. I was surprised how many would smile also.

Well, I’ll just continue to be me even if people choose not to respond.

Anyway – good morning.
