Hold
on to what is good,
Even
if it is a handful of earth
Hold
on to what you believe,
Even
if it's a tree standing by itself
Hold
on to what you must do
Even
if it's a long way from here.
Hold
on to your life,
Even
if it's easier to let go.
Hold
on to my hand,
Even
if I have gone away from you.
Pueblo
Indian Prayer.

Too often we underestimate the power of a touch,
a smile, a kind word, a listening ear,
an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring,
all of which have the potential to turn a life around.
