Affirmation's Positive Influence

How helpful, as we walk life’s way,
In quandary or frustration,
A companion who hears what we say;
Listening is affirmation.

Decisions, quick, or slow to prove,
Require application.
The one who stands behind the move,
Staunchness is affirmation.

Our ways, be we old or young,
Can cause exasperation.
At times, it’s just to hold the tongue;
Patience is affirmation.
