What Sort of Trail Do you Leave ?

A comment left on my post regarding riches made me think of this little poem...


"Every person has the power to make others happy.
Some do it simply by entering a room --
others by leaving the room.
Some individuals leave trails of gloom;
others, trails of joy.
Some leave trails of hate and bitterness;
others, trails of love and harmony.
Some leave trails of cynicism and pessimism;
others trails of faith and optimism.
Some leave trails of criticism and resignation;
others trails of gratitude and hope.
What kind of trails do you leave?”

~William Arthur Ward~

This poem really challenges me to look at the path behind me. The photo is so nice Patty. Is it a path you have helped make?
