Thinking for self vs Thinking for others

Was kinda offended when i sent out an important sms yet the person didnt reply. I understood that the person is busy and therefore an sms would be appropriate.

But I waited to no avail... one thought sank into my mind.. "was i too insignificant for the person to reply this simple sms? no matter how busy that person is, the reply only take less than 10sec. "

Then i decided not to give in to that thought. I decided not to take offence and believed that it had slipped the person's mind. True enough when I had sent out a second sms the next morning, the reply was immediate.

A heart to serve others or a heart for others to serve us makes a huge difference.
it will change the way we work, it can make or break a relationship.
