MAKE SURE YOU APPLAUD LOVED ONES

MAKE SURE YOU APPLAUD LOVED ONES

In Dr. Ernest Mellor’s book, “Homemade,” he details the importance of appreciating others, and he does so by recalling how important applause is to children, and others as well:

“Recently my wife and I sat charmed at an outdoor performance by young Suzuki violin students. After the concert, an instructor spoke briefly on how children as young as two, three and four years old are taught to play violin. The first thing the children learn is a proper stance. And the second thing the children learn – even before they pick up the violin – is how to take a bow. “If the children just play the violin and stop, people may forget to show their appreciation,” the instructor told us. “But when the children bow, the audience invariably applauds. And applause is the best motivator we’ve found to make children feel good about performing and want to do it very well.”

Adults love applause too. Being affirmed makes us feel wonderful. If you want to rekindle or keep the flame of love glowing and growing in your marriage through the years, try showing and expressing your appreciation for your mate. Put some applause in your marriage and watch love grow.”

Thank you, Dr. Mellor, we’ll try to remember and put your sage advice into action. 

Sisters and brothers, be continually blessed, and please (above all else) MAKE SURE YOU ARE READY TO MEET OUR SOON COMING KING. Maranatha!
