I've been wondering though, people probably aren't going to remember things you say or even much what you did but more, how they felt when they were around you. It seems you have nourished warmth and peace and humor in others!Amayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02214963251505201287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-156773205591631053.post-72646914257397824092017-10-22T18:38:14.754-07:002017-10-22T18:38:14.754-07:00Great start of my week with a dose of Ms Bev’s les...Great start of my week with a dose of Ms Bev’s lesson of wisdom.

If you see their shortcomings, probably best not to mention.annell4https://www.blogger.com/profile/07629830133868270690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-156773205591631053.post-57975816617899401972017-10-19T13:06:40.782-07:002017-10-19T13:06:40.782-07:00Yes indeed Bev. that kindness goes way farther th...Yes indeed Bev. that kindness goes way farther than one would think.
