"Duo" Two older posts together

Pastel colors of morning hue,

Rosy pink and powder blue.

One lonely cloud may shadows cast,
But hope wins out, the dark won’t last.

With these couplets of wording rhyme,
Hoping heart from within me shines.

Let your own heart with caring warm,
Overcome adversities’ swarm.

Make all the object of your care,
Then love and peace will fill the air.

^{This was/is one of my favorite, simple morning greetings
It alone should qualify as a #thoughtful-daily-post}

“Thought is the Bud,
Language is the Blossom,
Action is the fruit.”
These are the words of
Ralph Waldo Emerson,
^{though I have taken some
liberties with them.}

This is also a biblical concept.
What you think, you will many times do, so
Guard your thoughts
Lest you end up doing something you will regret.

Life is too short for regrets.
This also exemplifies the concept of
“What you think, you draw to yourself”
Or
“What you think, you create"
Thoughts are powerful things,
Just as are
Words.

Be careful what you say, because what
You say,
It cannot be “unsaid”.

“Hurt feelings and broken hearts rarely mend.”
