Ripples

What we do matters. So often we believe that what we do goes unnoticed. Yet, most of the time, the little things are what affect those around us the most. Our actions explain who we are, make others feel good or bad, and can flip a good day into a dismal one or vice versa. A comment here, an action there MATTERS. Yet, so often, we feel that what we do or say isn't really all that important. I beg to differ. Try telling a child no or a homeless man yes. These words MEAN something. What we do and say are watched and weighed to such a degree that entire shows, blogs, and reputations are based on it. Words and actions are like tiny movements in water; they grow. We need to recognize this fact and use it; we must act and speak with care and purpose. Even then, we may fail.
