in Power of Words,Way Off The Subject, Or Not

Found at Creative Copy Challenge 18 in a comment by Shane Arthur. Has me in tears:

There’s another one in the same comment that’s equally important.

Thanks Shane!

Write well and often,

Anne

A wonderful film! The way you say something is more important than what you say. Nice, Anne. Thanks.

I always find it amazing that you can put the same thing in a different way and have such a profound difference. The power of words indeed. Thank you.

Anne,

That was a moving video – what a difference one little change made!

And the video shows something else – how meaningful it can be when we don’t just walk past and fail to notice those in need.

Yes, I work to at least look the homeless in the eye, although it wouldn’t have made any difference here, and I’m afraid I wouldn’t have thought to change the sign.

The power of words.

Thanks, Anne. Your site always gives good information to writers and a lot of heart. This post is a good example. Hopefully we can take away that by observing the world around us compassionately and choosing our words well, we affect the world around us and cause change.

Thanks… am actually assembling a list of blogs that have nothing to do with writing or not much that I think are worth a look… next week maybe? But this one, this video… have already gotten one phone call and it’s been what, 15 minutes?
