14th of October 1998, in a Transatlantic flight of the airline British Airways took place the following event: To a lady sat down it in the airplane next to a man of black person. The woman asked the flight attendant that changed her of place, because she could not be sat down next to a so unpleasant person.

  The flight attendant argued that the flight was very full, but that would be going to revise to first class to see if perhaps would be able to find some free place. All the others passengers observed the scene with displeasure, not only by the fact in itself, but a by the possibility that there was a place for the woman in first class. The lady felt happy and even winner because her were going to remove it of that place and she not would be next of that person.

Minutes later the flight attendant returned and informed to the lady: -Excuse me lady, but really all the flight is full... nevertheless fortunately I found an empty place in first class. Nevertheless, to be able to do this rate exchange I had to ask authorization to the captain. He indicated me that not could be obliged anybody to travel next to a so unpleasant person.

The lady with face of triumph, she tried to leave her seat, but the flight attendant just then she turns and tells him the man of black race: -Mister, ¿would be you so kind to accompany me to his new seat?

All the passengers of the airplane stood up and they applauded the action of the flight attendant. That year, the flight attendant and the captain were rewarded thanks to that attitude.

Since that moment in the offices of British Airways read itself the following message: "The people can forget what you told them, the people can forget what did them, but never they will forget how caused felt them."

  The Bible says: "Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position."

 "Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your own interest, but also to the interest of others."
