双语美文：需要你鼓励的三种人

学习啦在线学习网　“I can live for two months on a good compliment.“ - Mark Twain

　　words are powerful. they can create or they can destroy. they have the power to chart new direction in someone’s life. the words that you speak today can offer encouragement and positive thoughts to another human being. or your words can send them further into despair. so choose them carefully.

　　A co-worker –many of our co-workers live tragic lives at home. they smile on the outside, but only to hide the pain on the inside. build them up. be liberal with your praise. send an e-mail. write a short note. offer an unsolicited compliment. speak health and well-being into another’s life. you may have no idea how desperately it needed to be heard…

　　I am a fan of simplicity. i encourage others to eliminate the unneeded things from their lives… but positive words cannot be on that list. too many people are counting on you.
