Sometimes the smallest things make the biggest difference. The power of words is one of the most immense powers known to exist.

British philosopher Alan Wilson Watts once said,

We seldom realize, for example that our most private thoughts and emotions are not actually our own. For we think in terms of languages and images which we did not invent, but which were given to us by our society.

In this video, a blind, homeless man sits by the side of a building hoping for some spare change, but no one seems to notice him. A stranger walks by and changes the message on his sign and suddenly the homeless man's fortunes change.

I found the video posted online and drew inspiration from it. Hopefully you may too.
