Seeds of Change


Seeds of change. 

I like the idea of planting small seeds of change. These seeds can be sowed as encouragement, kindness, courage, or even respect toward those who think differently than you. 

The Bible reminds us that the tiny mustard seed grows into a tree large enough to provide shade for the birds who make their nest in its branches.  Its size does not prohibit it from great purpose. 

A common theme that seems to reoccur in my writing is that small acts can generate significant changes. I like the idea of sowing these seeds of change in hope that they will make a difference in the lives of those whose paths we cross. 

Look for ways that you can do the same, and help cultivate the kindness made possible through your small actions. 

"Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love."

Mother Teresa

  1. I love that quote by Mother Teresa. And Yes, small seed become mighty, like the Oak tree.
    A smile is probably the best seed you can plant in the life of another human.
    A Baby's smile often melts even the strongest and hardest heart.

    1. Yes, I love what you have said about a smile. I try to scatter smiles whenever I can. It is such a simple action, but it might be the only smile someone might get that day. Thank you so much for reading.
