If there was ever a message in a song, this one would be for
today. Forming a habit of speaking kindly to one another almost seems outdated
in our current world of negative social comments, backlashes, and adverse
input.
Forming habits that uplift others is a tireless work of constraint, and constant resistance to the popular, edgy, and enticing wave of destructive criticism. Anyone who engages in social media has been exposed to the new insight of the toxic souls of some human beings.

In the song, it suggests, “the tones will be welcome and free… give courage and hope from above” Imagine a day of only kind words from everyone you know; imagine a day where you speak only kind words to those around you. “Let us oft speak kind words to each other, kind words are sweet tones of the heart.”
Speaking kindly is a habit worth cultivating. It’s like clearing the flowerbed by removing the ugly, greedy weeds that thrive off the lovely flowers, competing for nourishment and diminishing their bloom.
Let your words bloom with kindness, thoughtfulness, and a sincere care for those you interact with each day. “Like the sunbeams of morn on the mountains, the soul they awake to good cheer…”

Townsend, 1849-1942; Ebenezer Beesley, 1840-1906
