I went to Reno expecting to remember the Reno Aces, the blinking slot machines, and the bright casino lights. Instead, the moment I couldn't stop thinking about happened in a neighborhood café. When I asked the barista if they had Wi-Fi, she laughed and said, “We're civilized here.” That one simple sentence stayed with me for the rest of the trip. It made me wonder what it really means to be civilized. Is it about convenience and technology, or is it something deeper, like hospitality, curiosity, and the way we welcome one another?
Key Takeaways:
- Curiosity creates connection where assumptions create distance.
- Being “civilized” isn't about perfection. It's about how we choose to treat one another.
- Small acts of kindness often leave the biggest impressions.
