The heart is formed for friendships, and we need smile | and light glowing from the faces of otheig as much as the little flower needs the warmth of the sun or the cooling shower-: Words of kindness fall upon the heart like the gentle dew.

It is kindness alone that will soften, their hearts and win them back eventually to the right way.
