"To touch someone with kindness is to change someone forever. Heavy, huh? But that's not the half of it. Because for everyone you touch you also reach everyone they will ever know. And everyone they will ever know. And so, for the rest of all time, your kindness will be felt in waves that will spread long after you move on." ~Mike Dooley
We leave a life print on everyone we come in contact with, and the affect of that contact, whether positive or negative, does have a ripple effect on everyone that person comes in contact with, and on down the line. Are you leaving a life print on them that is passing down something good, kind, encouraging, or are you leaving a life print on them that is a put down, discouragement, or just plain mean? Think of how you treat your family, your friends, your neighbors, your co-workers, and also think how you treat a waitress, a clerk in a store, or maintenance people where you work. Will the way you treat them, even if it's just a look, pass something down to those they come in contact with that is positive or negative?
