Feeling Good? Pass it on

Have you ever wondered what effect can an unkind word from your  mouth have? Perhaps you haven't. But if we stop and think, then we shall realize the importance of polite words and actions. A person who is greeted with soft and polite words will definitely pass them on, making the day brighter for many people. So starting the day in right mood is very important. A few lines of James W. Foley explain the phenomenon better:
Drop a pebble in the water
just a splash and it is gone,
But there's half a hundred ripples
Circling on and on and on
Spreading, spreading from the center,
falling on and out to the sea.
And there is no way of telling
where the end is going to be.
Drop an unkind word, or careless
in a minute it is gone,
But there's a half a hundred ripples
circling on and on.
They keep spreading, spreading, spreading
from the center as they go,
And there is no way to stop them,
once you've started them to flow.
Drop an unkind word or careless:
in a minute you forget;
But there's little waves flowing,
and there's ripples circling yet,
and perhaps in some sad heart
a mighty wave of tears you've stirred,
and disturbed a life which was happy
where you dropped that unkind word.
Drop a word of cheer and kindness:
just a flash and it is gone;
but there's half a hundred ripples
circling on and on and on,
bearing hope and joy and comfort
on each splashing, dashing wave
till you wouldn't believe the volume
of the one kind word you gave.
And you've rolled a wave of comfort
whose sweet music can be heard
Over miles and miles of water
just by dropping one kind word.

The day you realize the truth in these words, you are in for a lot of satisfaction and contentment in life. So be conscious about the opportunities that life throws at you. And who knows your words and actions might be travelling miles and miles playing an important role in bringing peace and harmony back to our planet. Let's create a better planet!
