Impact.

Have you ever noticed how your life can be impacted by the actions of one person? Have you seen the pyramid of happenings because that one person made the choice to impact on your life? It is not religion or politics that makes the world go round. It is a smile, a kind word, maybe even that soft gentle caress on one's hand. Something small and insignificant to anyone else, but makes you realize you are a real person. A wonder in this big world that for just the one second, you were admired. And all because of a simple stranger with compassion in thier eyes. That first kiss, how intimate and slow it was. Like a small brook of water not big enough to sustain even fish. But refreshing enough for one deer to rejuvinate enough to move along its' path in life. And as we follow the brook it leads to a river, which sustains a lot of life within and around its rushing waters. There, the small intimate kiss sparks into a passionate fire within your walls screaming to be let out. All that enthusiasm oozing from your pores, showing with that beautifully radiant glow your smile illuminates.

And all from one simple act of compassion. Even the smallest seed can become the mighty oak. Take a little time today to just enjoy the simple things around you. The ant scurrying to collect food for his many thousands fellow ants. That crazy squirrel scampering about humorously enough to make you smile.

That beautiful smile an innocent child gifts you when having thier doll returned after dropping it. The loving glance of the complete stranger who wants nothing more than to see your life turn out the way dreams are made.

Take your gift of love and shower it on everyone. Even the worst of hearts knows genuine souls when it is dropped in thier laps.

Start Impact.
