Every major world religion has some version of the "golden rule" which simply states: treat others the way you wish to be treated. Here are some applications to consider for the way you live. They involve asking yourself questions such as these:
How would I like to be treated by someone smarter than I am?
How would I like to be treated by someone wealthier than I am?
How would I like to be treated by someone more attractive than I am?
How would I like to be treated by someone with more power than I have?
How would I like to be treated by someone physically stronger than I am?
How would I like to be treated by someone who is far more popular than I am.
How would I like to be treated by someone more politically connected than I am.
This simple exercise will provide ample motivation and encouragement for us to treat others in more kind, gentle, patient ways.
