After years of living in the adulting world, I think I’ve come to a realization: Manners exist to guide you to good conduct even when you’re in a bad mood.

When you’re happy, when you’re feeling generous, when you’re pleased with your gift or your service or your outcome, it’s easy to be nice. It’s easy to tip the waiter well when you’ve had a good day. It’s easy to thank the teller or the clerk when you got what you wanted out of the transaction. It’s easy to smile and chit-chat with strangers on the road when you’re in a good mood.

It’s hard to tip the waiter when you didn’t enjoy your food. It’s hard to thank the clerk for their time when you’ve just been told there’s a problem with their account and they weren’t able to fix it for you. It’s hard to think of something nice to say when your aunt gave you a crappy sweater you neither need nor want. It’s hard to be nice to people when you’ve had a shitty day. It’s HARD.

That’s what manners are for. Scripts and phrases that you learn by rote to say when you can’t think of a single nice or good thing to say from your own volition. Yes, they’re scripted. Yes, the sentiment is empty. But the scripts work in every situation, and the emptiness provides a buffer between your own unhappiness and the rest of society.

Because most of the time, it’s not the waiter’s fault that the food you ordered wasn’t what you expected. It’s not the clerk’s fault that your account is overdrawn. It’s not the fault of the barista or the stranger on the subway that you got fired today or your favorite aunt died. But even when you can’t summon a smile or a cheery word, you can still have manners, because they will serve you the same in sunshine or rain.

Donate to Help us save my family and our children to provide them life, organised by Mohammed Kouffa

A Cry for help from Gaza My name is Ahmed from Belgium,… Mohammed Kouffa needs your support for Help us save my family and our childre

I am Abdul Rahman Quffa, 23 years old, I live with my family, my brother Ahmed, 35 years old, my sister: Shahd, 19 years old, my brother Moamen: 28 years old, my father: Mohammed, 60 years old, my mother: 57 years old, and the rest of my married siblings and their children. We were happy in our home, and after the occupation bombed it... we took with us only the memories of our home in the hope of returning and resuming our lives.

We moved to places that were supposed to be safe, but they became dangerous and we were forced to move from one place to another in search of safety. We were displaced five times and we have not found a safe place yet. Now we live in a tent 💔💔 on the street.

Can you imagine that all my siblings and my father and mother are elderly and at this age they are forced to leave their home and sleep in the street? After withdrawing from our neighborhood, we quickly returned, keen to check on our house, only to find it had turned into a pile of rubble.

We did not know whether to mourn our house or our current home. We had lost everything we owned at the moment. All I had left was my family, and I was trying with all my might to get them out of Gaza. The travel cost per person was $5,000 to reach Egypt so they could live freely and with dignity, far from war and destruction.

My family, my brothers, my mother and father, deserve to continue this life, live with dignity, and feel safe and secure...

Please stand by us and donate to alleviate our suffering and get us to a safe place.
