The Weapon that can Save Lives

Months ago, my grandson asked me if there was a weapon that can save lives. The answer wasn't as easy as you think and in the months that followed, I helped him find and fine tune his weapon. I know that my grandchildren, the kids I've raised, and every student I've taught, will actually use these weapons to try to save lives.

I'm grateful for the time I've gotten on the Earth realm to brainwash my kids into them believing that they are heroes. I've brainwashed them into thinking that they can use these weapons I've given them to actually save lives. Imagine that.

When I had the initial conversation, it reminded me of a period in my early 20's when I was studying Dale Carnegie's work. For this conversation, it was his book "How to Win Friends & Influence People," more precisely the chapter about the "million dollar smile."

Be great to each other.

      Hi @stewsak, your post so speaks to me... I've just recently shared a Thich Nhat Hanh quote with my Instagram friends: “Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy.” And I also love the other one: "Because of your smile, you make life more beautiful." Yes, smiling is a powerful weapon. Thank you for spreading positive vibes, it's so needed nowadays! 😊

      Thich Nhat Hanh is a super Zen master and one of my favorite authors. I love the fact that you study and quote him. Wishing you the best and have an amazing week.
