On Appreciation and Encouragement




"You would not leave those plants in your window without water, or refuse to open the shutters that the sunlight might fall upon them, but you leave some human flower to suffer for want of appreciation or the sunlight of encouragement. Utter the kind word when you can. Give the helping praise when you see that it is deserved. The thought that 'no one knows and no one cares' blights many a bud of promise."
