Whoever said that we should greet other people by asking how they are doing was wrong. That’s a “taking” kind of greeting, and it will drive you up the wall because of being very repetitive.

Instead, wish other people well, or say “good morning,” or “good afternoon,” or “hope you are doing well.” That’s much better because it’ a “giving” kind of thing to do. It could lead to conversations and friendship, instead of just a quick exchange.

Also, instead of being aggressive, hostile and unfriendly, let’s try to be kind to one another.
