I Will Miss You
Words that are sufficiently crafted can leave a lasting impact on the world. It is good to keep in mind those words that will better help tell our story, ones that will represent us well for years to come. We must be clear in our purpose, concise in our action, meaningful in our pursuit and, above all else, honest if we desire a credible outcome.
While I ponder the importance of my own life, I often come to the conclusion that our greatest offering to the world can and should be the gift of words, and never those of disdain, but of hope, inspiration and reason, love is even better.
We must attempt to put our best foot forward at all cost, especially when speaking. Words have incredible power, and can make or break a spirit in an instant. They can make hearts soar or sore. Which will you choose, and how will you be remembered?
Think before you speak, and if you have nothing nice to say, just listen, and perhaps you might learn a thing or two. Now more than ever, we must be even more mindful of our communication, expressing ourselves in a way that makes others feel loved and cared for. Here’s to wiser choices, and better outcomes. Here’s to words that will help heal the human condition.
To a weary soul, I am sorry. I’ll remember you, always! – paerki
("This life is yours. Take the power to choose what you want to do and do it well. Take the power to love what you want in life and love it honestly. Take the power to walk in the forest and be a part of nature. Take the power to control your own life. No one else can do it for you. Take the power to make your life happy." – Susan Polis Schutz)

Contemplate The Following:
"The willingness to forgive is a sign of spiritual and emotional maturity. It is one of the great virtues to which we all should aspire. Imagine a world filled with individuals willing both to apologize and to accept an apology. Is there any problem that could not be solved among people who possessed the humility and largeness of spirit and soul to do either -- or both -- when needed?" – 10 Neglected Virtues That Will Heal Our Hearts and Homes
"Forgiveness is the name of love practiced among people who love poorly. The hard truth is that all people love poorly. We need to forgive and be forgiven every day, every hour increasingly. That is the great work of love among the fellowship of the weak that is the human family." – Henri J.M. Nouwen
