WORDS that are spoken, should provide 2 options - LIFE or DEATH!

There is so much power in words, when used appropriately. A depressed soul can be uplifted by a smooth tone of phrases, when all else fails. A crying child will become silent once an expression of adoration is spoken directly. Even when placed with a distinctive tune, hearts are moved to a compassionate mode. It has been said that music 'soothes the savage beast.' In addition, when you smile, or even laugh, the very innate qualities are rejuvenated, and extends to others, uplifting them to pursue life in its truest form.

I will be discussing many topics that appear to be imperative for today's way of thinking. With eloquent words, feelings of joy, love, peace, and contentment can be transferred. It is imperative to make sure we speak with what will cause one to walk away with an amazing outlook of assurance, knowing that things CAN, AND WILL work out!

Humble Nobility: Unselfish Traits, Fit For The Kingdom!

"Finally, brothers and sisters, rejoice!
Strive for full restoration, encourage one another, be of one mind, live in peace.
And the Father of Love and Peace will be with you!"
(2 Corinthians 13:11)

Times are surfacing, transforming into being extremely hard these days, as we already know.  But, then again, it's not like we weren't warned of these moments that are approaching us.  

We are becoming more painfully aware that many are continuing to be fiercely bitter, rude, and obnoxious to others, whenever they are outside of their immaculate abodes.  They choose to refrain from having a reason to provide such fond treatment to mere strangers, even laughing at their discontent.  

People who no longer have the privilege of possessing a decent job today, who happen to be 50 years and over, doubtful in locating another profitable position that allows them to continue living by which they've been accustomed.  The air itself is full of disarray and chaos spirits, adding more fuel to the fire in the hearts of individuals, with acts of bullying, selfishness, belittling, etc., having an "I could care less" attitude, because they consider themselves proudly egotistical. 

For instance, I read an insert today, that shows how insidious mindsets have become, but then we begin to take a person's feelings into consideration: 
"The Girl you just called fat?  She has been starving herself, and has lost over 30lbs.  The Boy you just called stupid?  He has a learning disability, and studies over 4 hours a night.  The Girl you just called ugly?  She spends hours putting makeup on, hoping people will like her.  The Boy you just tripped?  He is abused enough at home.  There's a LOT more to people than YOU KNOW!"
Instead of displaying an act of kindness, or just plain, old-fashioned courtesy, why is it that we decide to treat others as if we have everything perfectly together in our own lives, and need nothing else?  

While driving our cars, can we choose to be noble, when we see an older person cruising carefully on the road, by being happy for them that they are still able to maneuver  a vehicle, without the help of a care facilitator?  Instead of thinking that we are so physically perfect, wearing expensive famous-name-brand attire, while gazing at the less fortunate, mocking them for not having what we may have?  Imagine what it would be like if the shoe was on the other foot!

We are so blessed beyond measure, without realizing  it.  Is it so difficult or demeaning, to provide a sense of encouragement, spread some solace or comfort, by smiling more at others, whether we  know them or  not?  It doesn't hurt us one bit, when we spread more understanding in ways and actions, to EVERYONE - great or small, short or tall, young or aged.

Can we begin to come out of ourselves, place more emphasis on transferring more patience, objecting to evil, inhumane traits that bring discord, instead of hope to troubled minds?  A smile is an anointed blessing that can carry on for miles, even to the point of being in a humorous state, making the atmosphere light and free.

I adore amorously when a person, in a supermarket or office environment, walks by and cracks their cheek muscles.  You can tell they are living and breathing with the sentiment of joy, enlightenment and great anticipation, that all is not lost.  Even if the day started on a rough note, they are still determined that they will not allow themselves to "sweat the small stuff."  In turn, that type of carefree disposition brings  showers of contentment, to me!

We need to learn how to help each other, while we are here, experiencing many of the same things, struggling through together.  Let's consider how we would feel if we did not have our amazing, high-paying job,  or stability, with all the comforts of home, and an unwavering nest-egg, before we make comments, stating babble, like "why are they so lazy," or "they can find a job somewhere, it's not that hard!"

Encouragement and true inspiration springs hope and determination.  Try it with everyone you meet.  It could actually make a difference!  And don't forget - it could be YOU!  How would you want to be treated?  Think about it!
