Offer Sweetness

Posted May 5, 2010 By Ande and has 2 comments.

Sarcasm can be amusing, but it’s not all that endearing. A barbed tongue doesn’t win friends.

Joyful Springers offer sweetness. They go out into the world with kindness in their hearts and on their tongues.

It may not be cool to be sweet, but who needs cool when you’re creating warm relationships.

… another wise tidbit from a joyful GREATER SWISS MOUNTAIN DOG.

Connect Tongue And Heart

By Ande and has 2 comments.

Your tongue gives you access to one of the most powerful things in the universe: language. How do you use that power?

Your tongue can connect to a head full of judgment and anger or it can connect with a heart full of love.

Joyful Springers connect their tongue and heart. They use language to express their caring.

You can use language to uplift or belittle. You can use it to love or hate. It’s your choice, but choose well because others will respond to you in kind.
