   "The words of kindness are more healing
   to a drooping heart than balm or honey."
   Sarah Fielding
   
   
   It would seem that life is filled with never ending cycles.  Even when we face a familiar lesson or when we believe we have appropriately addressed the situation, old wounds are more easily forgiven than forgotten.  
   
   
   Present circumstances may churn old memories or feelings.  Often we may not even begin to understand the link back to the past.  We just feel a wound and a heaviness we don't want to bare.  
   
   
   At times we project a confidence to others that really isn't present.  We put on a front reflecting 'all is well' while we are sinking inside.  These are the times we so badly need to hear a few words of kindness from either a stranger or friend. So when we are prompted, please extend at least a smile as others pass our way.
