Every time I log into Facebook, it asks me "What's on your mind?" I wonder why they want to know, are they really interested in who I am and what I am thinking about or are they just trying to figure out how they can market to me?
Have you ever felt that when people ask the question, "How are you doing?" they are just waiting to tell you how they are doing, but they want to be polite and ask you first?
It seems to me that it happens more and more often. People also ask the question as they pass you on the street, but they really don't expect you to stop and tell them. "Hi, how are you doing?" they say as they walk on by. I sometimes wonder what would happen if you stopped and said, "Actually, I'm not doing very well. I had this (operation/accident/event) happen and ......" Can't you just picture them squirming and wanting to get away?
How many times have you asked the question and not waited for the answer? Or just expected someone to say "great, how are you?" as they pass on by.
Well, today, I want to really ask you... "How are you doing?" Are things going well in your life? Do you need a little help or support? A listening ear? If so, post a message below or send me an email. I will take the time to listen and respond to you.
Have a great day!!
