Choose Wisely ~

"The life I touch for good or ill
 will touch another life,
 and in turn another,
 until who knows where the trembling stops
 or in what far place my touch will be felt."
 Frederick Buechner

an act of kindness
can have far-reaching effects

beautiful words, and also an unkind touch can last for many generations, just as a kind one does. I had to very unkind aunts and the things they did and said effect me to this day even though they are dead and gone...

I love your new header for the holiday, mine will hopefully get a "winter makeover" when I stop by my daughters today. What a wonderful meaningful post.

So true. And a little conviction the converse happens when unkindness is the choice. Let me choose kindness…even when it is hard.

Susan said...

So true, like throwing a rock in a pond. The ripples go on and on. Kindness is so important!

You're a very "light" lady. Nice to see these candles, nice to see your wording.

Hope I see them in a few days....
