The Better Way

There have been times when I have talked in anger and my face was flaming red... But those were times when I have uttered something stupid which I wished later that I had not said. Calm, cool and collected is the type of guy I want to be... But in an unguarded moment I have been the type of guy you don't like to see. So I asked the Lord to help me to choose the proper things to say... And now sometimes I say something special to help someone to have a better day. The words we speak to each other have tremendous power you know... Some words can bring us down and others help us grow. Say something nice to someone and then watch their face start to glow... Kind and gentle words is a great way to let your character show. Remember, we all need a little praise as we journey through the day... And praising others is always the cool and better way. TK<><

So true, Tom. My grandmother used to say that there is something good in the worst of us, and something bad in the best of us. I do try to look for the good in everyone I meet.
