What should people pay more attention to?

breathing, the ideas of youth and the cycles of the earth.

Since I work with younger kids, I realized very quickly they all just blurt out the truth...whether it's hurtful or not. This also led me to pay more attention to how adults handle the same situations and let me tell you...some of them just let it rip too. As grown-ups, we should have learned how to think before saying. It is so important to everyone, and yourself, that you think carefully about what you say!!!

People should pay more attention to the small delights of daily life.

Oral hygeine. 
I interact with a lot of people on a regular basis. Many of them have wicked bad breath because they don't brush and floss adequately. I can deal with the occasional garlic or onion breath, but rotten mouth breath is worse than my dogs' bad breath.

Besides each other? The stove.

The environment. And all the great things they have. Even I take things for granted, like having a door on my room.

1)Thinking.
2)Eugenics

Themselves. Most people are so absorbed in the lives of people on television, in magazines and newspapers, and on their computers. They spend countless hours at jobs where they devote all their time into helping another person succeed, and they are failing in their own lives. It's unfortunate that in our short lives, we spend hardly any of it finding who we are and what it is we really want.

I think people should pay more attention to:
10) What children say - Listen to our Future
9) Words that hurt - Hear how we respect each other
8) Intuition - Use Spirit's advise
7) Conscience - God's has written His law in each of us
6) The Sky - Don't question Incomprehensible truth
5) "Why" someone is asking a question - To avoid burnout and stress, answer the "Why" first.
4) Trees - Before you cut down your next Christmas tree and watch it die in your livingroom, understand it as a living being. (sniff)
3) Dreams (or lack of) - Dreams are why we exist, remember them!
2) Control - There is not always an answer for every question
1) Happiness - Stop running! Stop and slow down, does anything really matter?

Being as kind and forgiving and open-minded as possible. . . .remembering not to hurt people's feelings unnecesarily, and whenever possible trying to make other people feel good about themselves, even if they aren't feeling so wonderfully themselves. . . .

Their families.
The environment.
The road in front when driving.
The questions their children ask, and the reply they give.

The world would be a better place if people paid more attention to how their words and actions affect other people.
