December 20 ~ Music of the World
“Kind words
are
the music of the world. They have power that seems to be beyond
natural
causes, as if they were some angel’s
song
that had lost its way
and
come to earth.”
~ Frederick William Faber

Patience is how nature keeps time—quiet, steady, faithful. As
Ralph Waldo Emerson reminds us:
“Adopt the pace of Nature; her secret is patience.”
Stop. Put a moratorium on deadlines. Be kind to yourself, and to others.
“Enjoy the little things for one day. You may look back and realize they were the big things,” advised writer Robert Brault.
Kindness can work miracles. Again and again, it proves to be the choice that does the heart the greatest good. As observed by motivational speaker Zig Ziglar, “Truly successful people are givers and forgivers.”
(P.S. Home-made presents are fun to give and fun to receive, and often outshine store-bought ones.)
Choose kindness. 🎶
