The Wisdom of a Child

One of my favorite authors, Leo Buscaglia, once talked about a contest he was asked to judge.

The purpose of the contest was to find the Most Caring Child. When the judging was over, the winner was announced. The winner was… A four-year-old boy!

The boy’s next door neighbor was an elderly gentleman, who had recently lost his wife of many years. Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman’s yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there.

When his mother asked him what he had said to the neighbor, the little boy looked at his mother and said, ‘Nothing, I just helped him cry.’

Think Positive

Be vulnerable… reach out to others. Touch one heart, you could change a life.  Touch many lives, you could change the world! What are you waiting for?

Thanks for the share, WK!
