It takes so little!

So Little Means So Much!

It takes a smile to feel welcome. It takes a “please” and “thanks” to feel safe. It takes a moment to show you care. It takes a little forgiveness to heal.

How much do you seek respect? How much do you want peace? How much do you desire happiness? How much do you long for love?

When you have hurt someone, say ”I am sorry”. When you have offended someone, apologize. When you have forgotten someone, let them know you are sorry. When you have not been kind and considerate, apologize.

Being sorry is a way of showing you care. Apologizing is your way of being considerate. Letting folks know that you truly are well-meaning is a display of kindness. Saying “I am sorry” requires so little and gives so much.

When you are want anything from anyone, say “Please”. Stop demanding, threatening, expecting and being inconsiderate of others. With family members, partners and children, always say “PLEASE”. This is the primary way we teach manners and show respect.

When you receive an answer, a meal, help or kindness, always say “Thank You!” When you have been served by anyone on the phone or in person, remember to say “Thanks!” When you share you gratitude with others, they feel valued and respected. Teach everyone by your example how to be courteous and respectful.

When you know you have judged, Forgive to clear you limiting thoughts. When you know you have criticized, Forgive to undo false expectations. When you know you have hated, Forgive to heal your heart. When you know you have avoided or neglected, Forgive to find inner peace.

Express your Love by saying and writing and thinking and showing, “I Love You!” Get over the fears of freely using the words “I love you.” Stop withholding your love and let it be said and shared and show. You are created by Love for the purpose of Loving.

I Am Sorry. Please Forgive me. I Love You. Thank You.

These four statements will heal you, your family and your world! Let us all be willing, Betty Lue

Do It Anyway by Kent M. Keith

People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.

If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies. Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you. Be honest and frank anyway.

What you spend years building, someone could destroy it all overnight. Build anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous. Be happy anyway.

The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow. Do good anyway.

Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough. Give the world the best you’ve got anyway.

You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.

With love, Betty Lue
