Appreciation

"Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!" (Lk 1:42)

Elizebeth praised Mary.
Praise is the best psychological treatment when we handle persons.
Appreciation prompts fresh shoots.
The pills of praise are a better prescription than anti-depressants.
How many men and women, who would have bloomed under the tender radiance of an encouraging word, have withered prematurely in the deadly fire of caustic criticism!
Depreciation dulls the growth and saps the rose gradually.

The perils from praise are less common than the perils from curse.
A stiching needle is a lovelier tool than cutting scissors!
