Speaking Of The Word Encourage...

Speaking of the word encourage, I looked up it's various definitions on Merriam-Webster's online dictionary.  They were as follows...

1 a : to inspire with courage, spirit, or hope 

   b : to attempt to persuade 

2: to spur on 

3: to give help or patronage to

Pretty cool.  Wouldn't you like to inspire someone with courage, spirit or hope?  Persuade them to keep going?  Spur them on to good choices that will help them have a great life?  Give help to them when times are tough?

I would.

Let's do this.
