Many Happy Returns

Every drop of kindness that you give away,Returns to you to bless your life one day! Beverly F. Walker

Two Things Stand

Life is mostly froth and bubble,

Two things stand like stone,

Kindness in another's trouble,

Courage in your own. Adam Lindsay Gordon

Pass it On

Have you had a kindness shown?

Pass it on;

Twas not given for you alone,

Pass it on;

Let it travel down the years,

Let it wipe another's tears,

Till in Heaven the deed appears -

Pass it on. Henry Burton

Kindness

Kind hearts are the gardens,

Kind thoughts are the roots,

Kind words are the blossoms,

Kind deeds are the fruits. 19th century rhyme

Little Things Little drops of water,Little grains of sand,Make the mighty oceanAnd the pleasant land. Little deeds of kindness,Little words of love,Help to make earth happyLike the heaven above. Julia Fletcher Carney
