Here's the "golden rule" Jesus taught us:
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you...
It might help to play out that rule
and reflect and pray over its implications...
Speak to others as you'd have them speak to you...
Think of others as you'd have them think of you...
Encourage others as you'd have them encourage you...
Say of others what you'd have them say of you...
Respect others as you'd have them respect you...
Be tolerant of others' opinions
as you'd have them be tolerant of yours....
Forgive others as you'd have them forgive you...
Be kind to others as you'd have them be kind to you...
Seek to understand others
as you've have them seek to understand you...
Defend others as you'd have others defend you...

Play fair with others as you'd have them play fair with you...
Reach out to others as you'd have them reach out to you...
Be just in your dealings with others
as you'd have them be just with you...
Be generous in helping others
as you'd have them be generous in helping you...
Trust others as you'd have them trust you...
Make time for others as you'd have them make time for you...
Rejoice in others' happiness as you'd have them rejoice in yours...
