I would love to end my review with one of the letters that I really liked:

Live with Kindness;

It is important to remember that just as our words are our thoughts verbalized, so our deeds are our beliefs actualized. No action no matter how small, is insignificant-How we treat someone defines how we treat everyone, including ourselves. If we are cruel to another, we will be cruel to ourselves. If we can’t appreciate those around us, we won’t appreciate ourselves. With every person we engage, in everything we do, we must be kinder than expected, more generous than anticipated, more positive than we thought possible. Every moment in front of another human being is an opportunity to express our highest values and to influence someone with our humanity, we can make the world better, one person at a time.

CHEEERRS!!
