Look what I found in my archives! I got these words from a friend (I don't quite remember who) in high school. I remember they were printed on a small piece of paper, the size of a complimentary card. I loved it when I read it. It sounded like great poetry to me so I decided to copy everything into my journal.
I was going through my old materials this afternoon and voila! I found it like a hidden treasure! It's interesting to know how many things I've forgotten about and amazing to retrace these words. They are few but I think they are weighty and beautiful. So I decided to share them with you! I hope they brighten your day as they did mine :)

On This day...
Mend a quarrel. Search out a forgotten friend. Dismiss suspicion and replace it with trust. Write a love letter. Share some treasure. Give a soft answer. Encourage youth. Manifest your loyalty in word or deed. Keep a promise. Find the time. Forego an enemy. Listen. Apologize if you were wrong. Try to understand. Flout envy. Examine our demands on others. Think first of someone else. Appreciate, be kind, be gentle. Lough a little more. Deserve confidence. Take up arms against malice. Decry complacency. Express gratitude. Worship your God. Gladden the heart of a child. Take pleasure in the beauty and wonder of the earth. Speak your love. Speak it again. Speak it still once again.
