How are you?

“How are you?”
Three tiny, little words that say so much.

They say, “I care.”
They say, “You matter.”
They say, “I want to know if you’re doing well.”
When you say these words,
make sure to wait for an answer.
They’re so much more than
just a habit or a greeting,
as they offer a little window
into the life of the person
to whom they are asked.
