That is one inspirational video right there, John. Choosing the right words really
matters specially for us writers. Having that kind of mindset is one way of showing
to the readers the art or writing. Sometimes writers do forget about that…

Thanks for your post,

I know a little about blindness and I wrote my – the Vision –
for a somewhat similar reason, only my writing is not alway’s seen.

That video actually gave me goose bumps. Thank you for sharing it. The way you say something really is the most important factor when it comes to results. This fact makes me sad, so many good causes have been ignored because they told their message wrong.

Gene,
Maybe people are using more acronyms but I don’t know if I would agree with you that people are caring less and less about the English Language.

I seriously think that in the coming generations the internet will be where amazing new writers got their start.

These talented writers will be just one of the many new facets of the information revolution.

And I really do look forward to the day that these new writers start to pop up.

Words Do Matter And The RIGHT Words Matter Even More.

In reply to Stephanie Hoffman. That's another important message of the video. Often we can make a large impact on somebody's life by just giving a few minutes of our time. But how often do we actually do it?

This video is beautiful on so many different levels; I particularly liked how the woman took the time to make such a difference in the man’s life. Thank you so much for posting this one!
