Spreading Love, One Heart at a Time

Good morning Dorie. You can't control the world around you, but you can control you reaction to it. Tolerance, understanding and a little love on our end may just change the things we can't control. Enjoy your day.

I love the sayings of Mother Teresa, and I read at least one of them each and every morning!

Good morning, Dorie. I couldn't have said it better myself and it's exactly how I try to live my own life: "We can’t control the world around us, but we can choose how we show up in it."

Thanks Dorie, for sharing a beautiful message to start a new week!!!

We can’t control the world around us, but we can choose how we show up in it. If each of us committed to spreading a little more kindness, offering a little more grace, and leaving people just a bit happier than before, our world would shine a whole lot brighter.

You are absolutely correct. We can control how we act - and to do it in a loving way adds good ripples to our world.

Soft words that can carry a large message. I walk with a smile, and when I make eye contact with someone just nod. It spreads the smile with little effort. Strong message, Dorie Dillard Austin TX 

We may not be able to shape everything around us Dorie, but we always decide how we respond.

Dorie, this is such a lovely reminder — one that feels especially meaningful during the holiday season and throughout the year. 💛 It’s amazing how the smallest acts of kindness can shift someone’s entire day, sometimes even their outlook.

I love how you put it: we may not control the world, but we can always control the way we show up in it. If everyone carried just a little more warmth, patience, and love into their daily interactions, imagine how much brighter and softer our world could be.

Thank you for spreading joy with your words today — mission accomplished! 🌟

What a great reminder and yes it is not difficult to offer a smile or a gesture of help.

Good Monday morning, Dories. This is good advice for all of us.

Let's continue to spread love and kindness every day.

Getting Christmas cards ready to send. Guaranteed to bring a smile, Dorie Dillard Austin TX!

Dorie you are right we can't control things around us, but we can control how we react to them.

Dorie, just a smile could spread some content and peace to many.  Why not?

Hi Dorie- I love this and of course, the perfect quote. The one thing in our lives we can control is our behavior. When we can make others happier, it's a beautiful gift to share. 

What a beautiful reminder that kindness doesn’t need to be grand to make a lasting difference, Dorie Dillard Austin TX 🙂. Your words shine with warmth and encourage us to carry love into even the smallest moments, and I’m grateful you shared this uplifting perspective!

Dorie Dillard Austin TX - Mother Teresa has been right about all the decisions she made that I know and studied reading her books and reading all about her.
