SERVICE

Hello there, it's so good to be sharing this with you. This is one of the single most talked-about topics in businesses and human relations these days. Service

I wrote this about 3 years ago and I like to share it with you on my website. Thanks for the time...

Have you ever waited in line to be served before?  Have you sat down at you favourite restaurant waiting for somebody to come get your order? Ha! How about the ATM? I can imagine the frustration on your face when you get to the ATM and you realize it cannot dispense.  I was once in a bank waiting for over 40 mins and all they told us was that their server was down.  I had to walk out in disappointment because I no access to my cash.  I didn’t get the service I was hoping to get.  It’s a shame! 

The scenarios I have painted here has one thing in common.  SERVICE or the lack of it.

Did you know that we are all designed to serve and be served?  Did you know that it is more fulfilling to serve than to be served?  We all want to be served, that is a fact.  Now, if every one of us wants to be served, who will be the one to serve? 

Service is simply described as the act of giving.  The gateman is serving no less than Mr. President.  The difference between them is that they are only acting in different capacity.  The bottom line is that they both are serving people.  

There is a longing in the heart of people you see on the streets, people you enter the same bus with.  They all want to be loved and cared for. Some are not happy because they believe no one cares for them.  This is where you can come in and show that you really care. The simplest way you can show love is by giving a simple smile.   This is one way you yourself can be fulfilled in life. Do something to serve someone today. 

Putting a smile on someone's 
face is a little miracle, 
though very scarce these days.



Someone is probably asking right now: ‘If I can do that to other people, who will serve me’? Listen, do unto others what you want others to do for you.  What goes around comes around.  Be concerned about solving people’s problems no matter how little.  

You don’t need to have all the money in the world to do this.  Remember, you have something to give, no matter how little. You have a smile, you can say beautiful things to people, like ‘you are beautiful today’. Putting a smile on someone's face is a little miracle, though very scarce these days. This alone can heal a broken heart.  

Life presents us a thousand and one opportunities to serve people daily. There is no reward without service. Your prosperity is tied to the amount of service you give. Let us serve one another, it is of great importance to nation building.
