Kind Words


Kind Words

Sometimes the best things come in small packages.  Like the gift of a few well-chosen words.  

John Wooden, the great UCLA basketball coach, was famous for coaching tips that were often less than five or six words per burst. 

Reminds me of this quote by Mother Theresa.

“Kind words can be short
and easy to speak,
but their echoes
are truly endless.”


Encouraging words have carried soldiers into and thru intensive battles.

Encouraging words have transformed men and women from a life of hopelessness to one of hope and stability.

I replay certain words that were said to me over thirty years ago.

Never underestimate the power 
of a well-spoken 
word of encouragement.

Words really can last an eternity.
