There is an old story about an army of frogs that went jumping through the forest one day when two of them suddenly fell into a deep 1. All of the other frogs gathered around to look 2at their two fallen friends. They all began to 3shake their heads and croak out warnings. “It­­­’s too deep!”said one frog. Another said that there was no 4they would ever be able to get out 5.

The two fallen frogs began to continuously jump as they 6to get out, but the frogs that were 7kept croaking louder at them that they might as well stop 8they were as good as dead and just 9 their time. One of the two frogs finally gave up, 10their advice and died.

The other frog just kept on jumping harder than ever 11all the loud croaks of disapproval from the frogs around the top of the hole. They kept croaking at him to 12jumping and save himself from all the 13and suffering as he jumped and fell back down to the bottom 14 .

Finally, to the 15of all the other frogs, he jumped right out of the deep hole. The other frogs asked him, “Why did you keep jumping 16 we yelled and croaked at you to stop?” The frog explained to them he was 17at that time and that he had thought they were cheering for him and yelling words of 18to him the entire time!

A little encouragement can go a long way. We don’t often think about the 19that our words have upon others. Our words do have the power to hurt or to 20.
