Such was the case with the words of Maude, a woman who learned that there is no wrong time to say the right thing. It was a cold, rainy day in March. Across the room in the millinery department of the store where Maude worked, sat Laura, a woman about Maude’s age. Other workers did not like Laura; they thought her to be too proud and unfriendly. And Maude agreed. But sweeping the discrimination (偏见) from her eyes, she made up her mind to say something kind to Laura. Finally, she managed, “You know, Laura, that I’ve worked in this room with you for several years. And whenever I glance up I see your head silhouetted (使呈现轮廓) against the window there behind you. I think you have the prettiest profile (轮廓) and hair that I have ever seen on anybody.” Her words were not insincere praise. She meant it. Laura looked up and began to cry. “That’s the first kind word anybody has ever said to me in all the years I’ve worked here,” she said. Maude discovered that Laura’s unfriendliness was not due to pride, but shyness. The two became friends. Other workers soon began to include Laura in their activities, and she blossomed like a flower that, for the first time, found sunlight. The right words, spoken in kindness, changed a life.
