Do not preach
with many words,
but with your empty, earth-worn hands,
held out in welcome,
or in the soft wrinkles around your eyes,
smiling with kindness.
Let there be some hope
in your being,
so that even in your silence,
or helplessness,
you may be more help than you know.
Stand for goodness, and truth.
Be a safe place for children.
Sing sometimes, or a lot.
Laugh often, and be grateful.
Pray
that your life will
preach.
