Array ( [sid] => 149900 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => * WITH A CUP OF LOVE * [time] => 2009-05-15 01:50:35 [hometext] => A poem revised .. [bodytext] => * * *
Pleasant are the words full of tenderness and free from deceit
Better than a joyous gift when spoken with a cheerful smile.
A kindly countenance and sweet words are the way of virtue.
Personal sorrows do not pursue the wise
who speak joy-producing words.
Humility and pleasant words are the jewels that adorn the wise.
Words yield spiritual rewards and moral excellence to us,
when they do not wander far from truth and agreeableness.
Sweet speech which is stranger to pettiness imparts happiness.
Why would anyone speak cruel words when we observed the fruits
that kind words could yield? To utter harsh words when sweet ones
would serve is like eating unripe fruit when ripe ones are at hand.
Let us think before we insult others with our clever words-
Word is a flower that fills joy of life in a heart.
Word is a fruit that inspires a happy thought.
Word is a friend that cools down anger and pacifies the mind.
Word is a lamp that illumines the path towards enlightenment.
Lets drink for the health of words with a cup of love!

"Why would anyone speak cruel words when we observed the fruits that kind words could yield?" So true, so true. Words can cut like a knife, or heal like an angel. Another sterling piece, my friend. Keep writing, and I'll keep reading!
Peace and Hugs,
Thumps ;o)

Dearest Venkat....

This is such a refreshing and inspiring
piece that speaks a very elemental truth...
WE SHOULD LOVE MORE. We should
BE the change. We should consider
that one word can change a LIFE.
Fantastic job, dear friend. As always, I
thank you for sharing it with us.

With love,
~dawn
