If I can stop one heart from breaking,
I shall not live in vain;
If I can ease one life the aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Unto his nest again,
I shall not live in vain.

No way. Too many people enjoy your photos.
Beautiful!

I hope I have done all of these at least once. I have put many baby barn swallows back into the nest.

I really think this is true, too. Even one tiny act of kindness is so important.
Yes. And so easy to do.
Small, but significant life goals.
Yes. 🙂
Such beautiful words.

Beautiful!

and one way to do this every time we leave home, smile and speak to people, smile at the cashier, thank her/him so easy to do… amen to this poem
Yes! It’s so easy to do. 🙂
Love this. That one tiny act of kindness can mean so much and yet there are times when we don’t even realize how much impact we are making on someone.
I agree. 🙂
Beautiful. Amen!
