A Good Memory Lesson

A great reminder of how we should treat others--from a non-fiction book written by an Amish woman from Middlefield, OH. She's not the originator of the poem, but included it in her book. Happy Wednesday, friends! 

·      A Good Memory Lesson: FORGET each kindness that you do as soon as you have done it; forget the praise that falls to you the moment you have won it; forget the slander that you hear before you can repeat it; forget each slight, each spite, each sneer whenever you may meet it. 

·      A Good Memory Lesson: REMEMBER kindness that is done to you whate’ver its measure; remember praise by others won and pass it on with pleasure, remember every promise made and keep it to the letter; remember those who lend you aid and be a grateful debtor.

·      A Good Memory Lesson: REMEMBER all the happiness that comes your way in living, forget each worry and distress be hopeful and forgiving; remember good, remember truth, remember heaven’s above you; and you will find, through age and youth, that many hearts will love you. H. Skinner
