First Impressions

Just how are we viewed by others is a concern.


Poem Artwork


We make an impression every day

In everything we do along the way

It’s so important to do it right

Before to you, you are out of sight!

 

The impressions we leave linger on

Much longer then after we are gone

They are hard to change once set in place

And all attempts prove a hopeless case.

 

The life we live is interrupted

By bad impressions that corrupted

When the good we try to exercise

Is hard for others to realize!

 

A good impression can be helpful

With others that will leave you grateful.

But it is the good that you did right

That follows your moves through day and night!

 

We all move through life at our own pace

You don’t need hurtles in this rat race

So if you’re left with a decision

Try to make a good first impression.

You had me looking back at all the first impressions that turned sour for me as I read this. It seemed like my entire life, although there were times when first impressions went very well, I often had to spend considerable time proving that I was who I was, because others' impressions of me were not good.

While there are scads of books that tell us how to behave when we first meet someone, you would be surprised how many underestimated the ability of a man wearing a hand splint on his right hand--damaged goods.

Eh . . . First impressions are important no doubt, and the devious among us know that as well and work on modeling that first impression to gain favor. Still, I agree that first impressions are definitely important.
