The Power of Words

This video illustrates a powerful point of how much our words can influence; a subject that Mrs Goodneedle and I had a private conversation on not too long ago. You've probably seen this video before, but watch it again.

  3. TOO OFTEN WE UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF A TOUCH, A SMILE, A KIND WORD, A LISTENING EAR, AN HONEST COMPLIMENT, OR THE SMALLEST ACT OF CARING, ALL OF WHICH HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO TURN A LIFE AROUND. LEO F. BUSCAGLIA

    I keep this quote at the end of my blog...perhaps I should post it at the beginning. Thanks for sharing the video. :*D

  13. Paula, this was a beautiful video and touched me as well. Too often our words cut and hurt others and it's important to realize that softer, sweeter words can "heal"
    Take care my friend!
