細細個上課曾經學過中國是禮儀之邦，但有時到外國生活時，發現一些外國人習以為常的舉止，很微不足道，但我們在香港/中國就是沒有這些習慣。可是假如我們每人也只是付出多一點點，身邊的人及社會的風氣也會好得多！沒有甚麼大想頭，只想從自己開始，在日常生活中作小小的改變。 1. 芝麻開門 這是我在英國時發現的，在倫敦生活的人，雖然經常也非常繁忙，但開門後永遠也會回頭看看有沒有人也要進來，只要看見有人走過來，便會開著門等一會，直到那個人來到。只是等幾秒，但是你會感受社會的氣氛更和諧！ 2. 說聲謝謝 在澳洲的時候，很多澳洲人下巴士的時候也會跟司機大聲說聲謝謝！我想因為彼此尊重大家，雖然大家也有付巴士錢，很多人也會覺得司機服務大家是理多當然，但其實大家也可以有一個感恩的心，說聲謝謝有多難？（我在澳洲也有說的，有時候司機還會跟我說‘晚安’，但是在香港還是不敢，好像感到司機叔叔會當我是傻傻的一樣！） 3. 不好意思 假如你曾經在繁忙時間在香港乘地鐵，可能你也會知道甚麼叫人山人海，明明已沒有空位，還是會有人勉強擠進車廂中。英國的tube (metro)也有擠人的時候，很多時候，假如當地人看見沒有空位讓他們上車，他們就會再等下一... read more »
