A Great, Great Good

By ME and the Boss

.

“If everyday,

everyone spoke

another kind word,

did another good deed,

then all these little

beneficial acts

would turn into

a great, great good.”

.

~ Master Sheng Yen

.

Now is the time to make a mountain out of a molehill.

You do not have to do all of the kindnesses,

just be the beginning, say one kind word and

and then ask someone to pass it on.

Today, tie a string around your finger

to remind you to say one kind word,

you may be the beginning of a great, great thing.

Kindness is the beginning of acts that become a great, great good.

Kindness is the beginning of a life filled with love.

A Tidy Soul

By ME and the Boss

.

“Be careless

in your dress

if you must,

but keep

a tidy soul.”

.

~ Mark Twain     (Samuel Clemens)

.

These words were spoken by the man in white

who was always impeccably dressed,

his writing was not too shoddy either.

One of the things that made his writing so enjoyable

is that all of his characters had tidy souls.

Today, be a Tom Sawyer, Huck Finn or a Hank Morgan,

and do your best to make this world a better place for all.

Life is to keep a tidy soul.

Life is living and loving in the here and now.
