WORDS TO PONDER

Today I bent the truth to be kind, and I have no regret,

for I am far surer of what is kind than I am of what is true.

~Robert Brault~

Compassion is language the deaf can hear and the blind can see.

~Mark Twain~  

Kindness is in our power even when fondness is not.

~Henry James~  

Treat everyone with politeness, even those who are rude to you,

not because they are nice but because you are.

Never look down on anyone unless you are helping them up.

  
                                       A good character is the best tombstone.

Those who loved you will remember.

Carve your name on hearts, not on marble.

Today, give a stranger one of your smiles.

It might be the only sunshine he sees all day.

Never miss an opportunity to make others happy,

even if you have to leave them alone in order to do it.

                              Love your enemies - it will confuse them greatly. 

Don't wait for people to be friendly, show them how.

~Henry James~

By swallowing evil words unsaid, no one has ever harmed his stomach.

~Winston Churchill
