Fresh breeze
The day is still, hot, sweltering, and suddenly a fresh breeze appears. Think of how the experience can lift your spirit.
So many in this world so often feel despair. Think of how you can be a fresh breeze in the lives of others to ease that despair.
Be the fresh breeze that brings positive energy to a dismal situation. Be the fresh breeze that brings real hope and a change in perspective.
Surprise life with new goodness. Surprise yourself with how good it feels to do so.
Though the temperature is still just as hot, a fresh breeze makes it feel much more tolerable.
Though a positive perspective does not change the situation, it improves where the situation leads.
In an instant a fresh breeze brings relief, a fresh perspective brings hope. Be that fresh breeze, for yourself and for others.
Ralph Marston
