One song can spark a moment, one flower can wake the dream.
One tree can start a forest, One bird can herald spring.
One smile begins a friendship, One handclasp lifts a soul.
One star can guide a ship at sea, One word can frame the goal.
One vote can change a nation,One sunbeam lights a room.
One candle wipes out darkness, One laugh will conquer gloom.
One step must start each journey,One word must start each prayer.
One hope will raise our spirits,One touch can show you care.
One voice can speak with wisdom, one heart can know what's true.
I've realised, within only the last few hours, that it's all up to me. I often tell my kids not to be slaves to anyone else's actions; not to allow anyone's words or actions to change their mood or attitude. Yet, I found that there were some people who had power over me.
Not anymore, though. Because my tiny actions, my little shifts, can start a tidal wave of unwanted backlash. I've learned that the atmosphere around me is controlled by me.
Think about it. It only takes one - YOU.
