"Always be careful with your
words because you never know
how many times it's repeating
in someone's head." Unknown
I know this to be true as my
own head is very good at this!
It can be those few beautiful
words . . . and alas, it can be
the hurtful, harmful ones.
I like to focus on the beautiful.
In my 40 years of teaching, I
always made it a point to give
a dozen or so compliments in
each class.
Important not to make my kids
uncomfortable, say the words
and walk away.
I find myself still doing it . . .
the supermarket for starters.
Makes me smile when I think,
"What must people think of
that crazy old white-haired gal?"
Bottom line, words are powerful,
choose carefully . . .
