I firmly believe that. And that was affirmed for me today, when one of my 8th graders brought me a card. This is what it said - I'll let it speak for itself:
I had noticed she was on the brink of tears (or had already been crying) the other day, so I had simply asked her to stay after class so I could have a word with her. I just asked if she was ok, and she told me yes.
And then I got this note.
I had almost decided not to say something. But thank goodness I did.
We all have the power to bring about a change (large or small) in someone's life on a daily, moment-by-moment basis.
Just think about that.
Wow.
We all are gifted with so many moments each day - let's make sure we don't miss them. Let's make each one count to bring God's love to one another.
Wouldn't the world be a better place with a little more compassion and love?
