There are meaningful words, there are pointless words, and then, there are words that hurt. - Sandra Bullock, All About Steve **As far as Im concerned, theres only one category worthy of wasting our precious breathe on!! Remember that words are very powerful! To ourselves and others!! Theyve started and ended wars (global and within ourselves), relationships, friendships, trust, credibility, and soooo much more! Make the dialogue with yourself and others positive! Positive attracts positive! If someone is difficult, I always try remember a quote my mom would tell us Those that deserve hugs the least, need them the most. Im not saying you have to go around hugging grumps, but remember, as hard as it is sometimes, that we dont know others stories...we have no idea what others are going through. They may project their shiz onto you b/c they cant cope healthily...we have two choices: 1) reciprocate and continue the projection of grump back and onto others, or 2) breathe, summon grace, and smile at them, maybe even say something nice..you never know how far a simple hello or have a great day will go with someone you feel doesnt deserve it! Think about it... If happy people only smiled/talked to happy people, at some point, no one would talk to you...when you need it most, the happy people would abandon you... Does this promote happiness?? Absolutely not!! Eye contact, smile, and recognition go so much farther than we realize!! Be the answer...Not the problem. If you see a grump, change their grumpy path! Thats how powerful we are! Spread smiles !!
