Summary

Listen to episode 897 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Important Thoughts to Contemplate. Edited and adapted from Morning Thoughts for Every Day in the Year by JR Miller.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Remember that we are all both sowers and fields. Our words, our acts, our influence, as we touch other lives, become the seeds. This is true not only of the good things that our lives scatter, but also the bad. Each life of ours is a little patch of ground on which other sowers are forever dropping seeds. Every person we talk with, every friendship we cherish, every book we read, sows seeds which will grow and become the harvest of life.

1:55.0	Sincere words of admiration help all true women and men, to live more worthily and achieve better things.
2:02.6	They also should be spoken while people are alive.
2:06.6	Kind words come too late, when they are held back until death has closed the ears
2:12.6	and chilled the heart, when words cannot avail to comfort or help.
2:18.3	Too many people also speak the wrong words, words that hurt, that fall on sensitive feelings like frost on the flowers.
