I've learned that. . .

people will forget what you said. . .


people will forget what you did. . .



but people will never forget. . .





how you made them feel.~Maya Angelou


I try to remember these words every day. I know we have all benefited from people who have loved us, shown kindness to us, and made us feel very special and appreciated. It is my heart's desire to make others feel this way as much as I possibly can. I will be the first to admit I don't always succeed, but it is not because I don't want to. Dear friends, please have a day full of happiness and contentment!

Words so true..I visit a lot of shut in elderly folks and I take a deep breath before I enter their home as I know I will hear the same words over and over..but I always make them feel like it was the first time they told me and I'm excited to hear it again. You never know, it could be the last time you hear them tell their stories. And a good thing is that they love me for it!
