The majority of us lead quiet, unheralded lives as we pass through this
world. There will most likely be no ticker-tape parades for us, no
monuments created in our honor. But that does not lessen our possible
impact, for there are scores of people waiting for someone just like us
to come along; people who will appreciate our compassion, our unique
talents. Someone who will live a happier life merely because we took the
time to share what we had to give. Too often we underestimate the power
of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment,
or the smallest act of caring, all of which have a potential to turn a
life around. It's overwhelming to consider the continuous opportunities
there are to make our love felt.
