Manners

Many of us still notice manners.

Some of the more quaint are dropping away.

Others which show respect are still a gauge of someones education and awareness.

More to the point they show us how self-preoccupied someone is.

As a rule of thumb if someone is selfishly preoccupied then do not expect much in the way of support or consideration from them.

Their world is themselves so leave them alone.

Let selfish people be.

People without manners are not easy to be with.

Let them be.
