When You Thought I Wasn’t Looking
A message for every adult to read; children are watching you and doing as you do, not as you say.
When you thought I wasn’t looking, I saw you hang my first painting on the refrigerator door and I immediately wanted to paint another one.
When you thought I wasn’t looking, I saw you feed a stray cat, and I learned that it was good to be kind to animals.
When you thought I wasn’t looking, I saw you make my favorite cake for me and I learned that the little things are the special things in life.
When you thought I wasn’t looking, I heard you say a prayer, and I knew there is a God I could always talk to and I learned to trust in God.
When you thought I wasn’t looking, I saw you make a meal and take it to a friend who was sick, and I learned that we all have to help take care of each other.
When you thought I wasn’t looking, I saw you give of your time and our only food because we had no money to help people who had wronged us and I learned that everyone has something to give and should help others no matter what.
When you thought I wasn’t looking, I saw you take care of our house and everyone in it and I learned we have to take care of what we are given!
When you thought I wasn’t looking, I saw how you handled your responsibilities even through your challenges, even when you didn’t feel good and I learned in that moment how to be responsible.
When you thought I wasn’t looking, I saw tears come from your eyes and I learned that sometimes things hurt and it’s ok to cry.
When you thought I wasn’t looking, I saw that you cared even when your words said you didn’t and I wanted to be everything that I could be.
When you thought I wasn’t looking, I learned most of life’s lessons that I need to know to be a good and productive person when I grow up.
When you thought I wasn’t looking, I looked at you and wanted to say, “Thanks for all the things I saw when you thought I wasn’t looking.”
LITTLE EYES SEE A LOT. Each of us (parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, teacher or friend) influences the life of a child. How will you touch the life of someone today?
Peace and Love To You All ~ You reign over the unspoken word – Once you speak and release it – it reigns over you – choose wisely –
“He who is wise will keep an open mind until he has fairly tested the various proofs that are available to him”
To be persuasive, one must be believable;
To be believable, one must be credible;
To be credible, one must be truthful.
