I was thinking just this morning that I wish I had the power to make an impact in the world in a very big way.
You know, through my writing, or in a social services job helping others.
And then it just dawned on me – a lightbulb lit up my brain:
I do have the power, and I’ve always had it.
Because each of us can affect those we live around, work around, or just interact with. Believe it or not, a simple smile is a very powerful gesture. It can lift people up, and let them know that we each can find happiness and joy in just simple things. Kind words will pass a positive spirit to someone who might have needed a boost that day.
And a smile is quite contagious.
You can let others know you care by these simple acts, and greatly impact your world, every day, in a positive way!!
(Believe me, I know it sounds sappy. But it’s true and it works! Try it.)
