What the world needs now

I am feeling very reflective today, about life and the way people treat each other and this quote seems to sum up my mood completely.

For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. For beautiful hair, let a child run his / her hands through it once a day. For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone. People, more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed, never throw out anyone. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms. As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands; one for helping yourself, and the other for helping others. Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind, don’t matter and those who matter, don’t mind.”

  1. Such an appropriate quote this week in light of the happenings in Paris and around the world. I loved Audrey Hepburn and her movies and her amazing spirit of compassion and charity. Thanks for the post.
