Words are Flowers
Words are flowers planted in the heart. They take root deep within the soul. As they grow they become who we are, How we think–the backbone of our goals. They must be cultivated and nurtured daily. The words we speak become reality as each blossom unfolds. Our words give life and health to our […]
