the words one chooses wield power. they can lift spirits or cut someone to the bone. it is so important to be careful of the words one uses. words can push others to the brink.... a brink that they would never have reached had the speaker had chosen his speech more carefully.
i never liked the old nursery rhyme about sticks and stones and how supposedly words never hurt. .... i beg to differ. words can hurt even more because they are not a physical object.
use words to convey love. use words to build world peace. use words to soothe.
never use words to injure or harass.
