SOFT THINGS
SOFT THINGS
Soft things overcome hard things by a gentle persistent pressure.
Thus winds reduce mountains to rubble over time, just like water seeps through, under, and around that same range. Softness wins.
A baby's mere presence reorders , even disorders its environment, making mothers coo and daddy's cry out loud for joy and happiness.
Women's softness overcomes men's hardness, literally and figuratively, over and over again!
Heat of soft sunshine evaporates rivers and desiccates grasslands, and melts the mightiest of glaciers.
"A soft answer turns away wrath, but grievous words stir up anger."
Proverbs 15:1.
Soft things overcome hard things in time. For, Time is the softest thing of all.
