I firmly believe in small gestures

I firmly believe in small gestures: pay for their coffee, hold the door for strangers, over tip, smile or try to be kind even when you don’t feel like it, pay compliments, chase the kid’s runaway ball down the sidewalk and throw it back to him, try to be larger than you are particularly when its difficult. People notice, people appreciate. I appreciate it when they’re done to (for) me. Small gestures can be an effort, or actually go against our grain (“I’m not a big one for paying compliments…”), but the irony is that almost every time you make them, you feel better about yourself. For a moment life suddenly feels lighter, a bit more

Your Words Are Useless

Your Words Are Useless

I always thought if I communicated enough, there would be change. But that’s not the case. You can communicate until you run out of breath but if there’s no comprehension, your words are useless.
