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  2 at their two fallen friends. They all began to   3  shake their heads and croak out warnings. “It­­­’s too deep!”said one frog. Another said that there was no   4  they would ever be able to get out   5 .

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

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

Finally, to the   15  of 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   17  at that time and that he had thought they were cheering for him and yelling words of   18  to him the entire time!

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