Sayings

Words are powerful. Words destroy. Words build up. Words must be acknowledged.And most of all, words can change lives. Some years ago, while on a business trip in South Africa I became very aware of various "sayings" or anecdotes. In retrospect, I know it was a "divine moment". Seemingly, everywhere I went on that trip, from bumper stickers on the back of a car, to the billboards that lined the highway, even the elevator that took me to the floor of my hotel room - sayings seemed to be everywhere I looked. Noticing that I was being led to increase my level of both listening and observation, I felt impressed to write them down as I encountered them. I did so even after my return to my home in the U.S. This is my current collection of sayings that I gathered from everywhere I've been...so far. From world leaders, to musicians, to bumper stickers, billboards and thoughts that have occurred to me over the past few years. I believe that you'll find a "spark" or two as you take this journey with me.
