“Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless.”

                                                                                              -Mother Teresa

This quote means that when you say a kind word to somebody to you it might not mean a thing but just a word but to the person you say it to it’s the best thing ever because it repeats over and over in there head like an echo. It’s the same thing if you say a negative comment to somebody then that will stay in their heads forever, so if you don’t think that words matter your truly wrong because whatever you say to someone they remember it forever not matter  if it’s a good comment or a bad one. To you that might not mean anything your just like oh whatever it’s a word but you never know what the person you said it too might be going through that’s why you should always be kind to a person because sometimes that kind word can save that person life and make them feel great about who they are.  Always try to be nice to any stranger no matter what even if you think it’s dumb no it’s actually not always be kind and the favor will be returned.

Average Salary:  

$26,000-$45,000

Educational Requirements:

Some students who want to become occupational therapists should take the most challenging high school math, science, and English courses. It requires either a bachelor’s or master’s degree that includes clinical experiences and successful completion of a national exam to become a certified occupational therapist.

I think that I would maybe like to become this because it has a lot to do with working with patients one on one.
