One kind word can change someone's entire day :)
I just loved this stamp from Riley and Company's
new stamp release when I first saw it.
There is something so profoundly wonderful in sharing a kind word,
offering a smile,
blessing someone's day.
Much to my daughter's dismay, I'm the mom
that talks to everyone.
My dad used to joke that if there wasn't anyone around,
I'd talk to a tree stump!
I can't recall talking to any trees, seriously :)
But I'm of the mindset that if I'm going to stand in front of you
at the grocery line, or sit next to you at the dr's office,
I'll say hello and ask you how are.
It's kind of funny how at the end of a exchange of any sort
... be it at the bank, the store, the movies, etc ...
I say thank you and have a blessed day!
8 out of 10 times, the reaction is a nice one :)
I always tell my children that you they need to carry enough
faith and grace to not just last through-out their day,
but to share with others as well.
it's brought to us by Joy.
Her challenge is to use sentiments on your cards.
Here is mine, using One Kind Word ...
If you upload your card/project to SCS,
please include the keyword Riley2313.

I hope someone shared a kind word, smile and blessing
with you today!
Big hugs, Bigger Blessings!
