Why else is there so much unhappiness and sorrow in the world? So how much value can be given to someone who is able to bring light and lightness to a place or a moment, where others have brought their dark? Like a crown of sparkling jewels, their presence and their words are priceless. It may only be a gentle smile of comfort, an attitude of genuine interest, some words which diffuse an awkward moment. Those who stay light in spirit while others weave their dark are both illuminated and illuminators. Watch out for such a moment today where you may illuminate. Make that moment momentous! ----------------------------------- ALW01 08.06.2007, 05:00 ----------------------------------- I agree rainbow1, I think a smile from a stranger warms those who see it, encourages comfort, and innocent conversation. This rainbow moment has reminded me of something I was told as a child. Mrs Haywood, my primary school teacher said to us all. "If you ever feel alone, smile at 5 different people each day. I promise you, it won't be long before you have new friend's" Thank you rainbow1 It is a nice memory Alan ----------------------------------- PokerGuru 08.06.2007, 22:38 ----------------------------------- Very interesting and precious memory, ALW, stimulated to the surface by you, Rainbow! I would say, Alan, judging by the great number of friends you have, that you learned your teacher's lesson well! I might add that learning well seems to have become a lifetime habit for you! Blessings for it!
