IMPACT

Well, we would like to have some impact –

at least that they knew we were in the room.

We can do a few things – like pick up the empty

coffee cups – and put the milk or cream away.

We can listen – make a comment – ask a

question – and thank those who invited us.

We don’t want to be pompous or pretentious –

but simply someone who adds to the situation.

But at some point in our lives we want to move

away from being self-centered and self-conscious.

We simply want to help others sense their impact

on our common situations and their value and beauty.
