Sometimes it is indeed the simplest of things that can carry significant power and meaning. I was reading a post on Facebook this morning prior to leaving the house, and for some reason, two characters just jumped out at me: a colon and a closed parenthesis. On their own, they are just grammar marks, but when the two are together, they represent a smiley face. I write often about how a smile can totally change yours or someone else’s day.
I thought more about the power of two as I was driving in. Another prime example of the power of two is two simple words: Thank You. Then another example popped in my head: I’m Sorry. Then I started thinking about the definition of a church and thought of the beginning of a verse in the Bible: “where two or more are gathered…” (Matthew 18:20). Then here came another example. What is a relationship: two people together sharing and experiencing each other?
In today’s world, things tend to get so complicated and overwhelming for all of us. Life just gets hard sometimes, but each of us has the ability to change that using the Power of Two. The next time you feel overwhelmed, just say thank you for something you are grateful for in your life, or just get a piece of paper and write a colon and parenthesis. Then just sit back and watch what happens. I give money back guarantee that you will indeed smile and your energy will change :)
