Listen Learn Love
I wear my smile on the outside of my face for a reason.
There are so many who need to see it.
Unless it becomes a sarcastic smile.
I hope I do not have one of those.
But we never know how people take things.
There is a belief in my head and my heart about love.
I think that is why God put us here.
To instill hope, love and confidence in others.
Not just our family and friends, but….
Strangers, teachers, clerks in stores.
I think our language should be love and hope and peace.
Call me Pollyanna because I like it!
Call me child-like for Jesus appreciated the children.
The child will lead, is what he said.
But do not call me childish, for I am not that.
Listening is as important as learning.
Maybe more important.
I think listening, learning, and living are why we are here.
I do all three in great measure.
With enthusiasm and excitement.
