“As America figures this all out, I’ll be holding doors for strangers, letting people cut in front of me in traffic, saying good morning, being patient with sales clerks, and smiling at passersbys, as often as I am provided the opportunity. Because I will not stand idly by and live in a world where unconditional love is invisible.
Join me in showing respect to someone who may not necessarily deserve it, but who needs it. Find your own way to swing the pendulum in the direction of love. Be kind to a stranger today and every day. Work to help fix this broken world we live in together.. We need more kindness and more positivity.”

A coworker and I were talking about this very thing just a bit ago! When encountering rudeness, what’s the sense in mimicking it? Resolve to be kind, even when it’s not warranted. There’s always a chance the rude person will change their attitude, but if not, at least you didn’t drop to their level.
