The Ripple-Maker Award

Friday, April 3rd, 2009.

 

Two weeks ago, I took the RawDiva's Green Smoothie challenge and I won The Ripple-Maker Award and a red Blendtec Blender.

 

Yesterday, while searching the web, I found this little poem and asked permission to share it with you. I thought it was very nice and that's what I am, we all are. So read it and think of all the lives we can touch by the things we do and by being true to ourselves. I do hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

 

A ripple maker

 

A ripple maker I will be,

a beacon in the dark…

A light to guide for all to see,

love I will impart.

 

Whatever our station in life may be,

He works it to our good,

if we but love and praise His name,

as we know we should…

 

The ripples of our lives can be

a gently sloshing wave…

That reaches others we don’t know,

and comes back to us someday…

 

The ripples that we now create

will land on distant shores…

Good ripples are addictive,

and we always crave some more…

 

Yes, a ripple maker I will be,

as I cast these thoughts to you…

Pick your pebbles carefully,

cause you’re a ripple maker too!
