Names are a powerful key to hidden emotions.
I have noticed as I grow older and visit government, retail or local restaurants, many look at my credit card or info and say something like, “thank you Mr. Kennedy”.
Or, “Here you go, Mr Kennedy”.
Very few ‘public servants’ call me by my first name these days.
It would be rare for someone to call me that when I was in my twenties. Too common in my seventies! It just feels great for a young person to call me Michael, as a friend would.
I probably visit their establishments more (like Northwood Cider Company not to mention names) than the others if you are listening………
I always say, “it is the simple things in life that are the most important”.
