Instead, I chose impatience over empathy. Sometimes we fail to notice when someone needs understanding more than anything.
That day, I learned that mindfulness isn’t just a matter of good manners—it’s about living compassion.
I ask before I sit back, offer help when needed, and remember that everyone carries invisible challenges.
This flight became a quiet lesson in humility and kindness. We never lose anything when we are kind to others.
Ultimately, a compassionate heart travels farther than any airplane seat ever could.
