The Power of Words
"""""""""""""""""""""""""'
Words can charm and words can wound so choose your words with care. Words can bring a blessing or a hurt beyond repair...
Words can make us enemies and words can make us friends. Words can make a quarrel, and one word can make amends.
Words of hate are stones flung out of anger or in spite. Words of truth are stars that give a sure and steadfast light. Words of peace are isles of quietness in life's troubled sea. Words of love are pearls strung on the threads of memory.
So before you speak the things that spring into your mind - ask yourself this question: Is it true, and is kind? Guard the gateways of the lips and keep them carefully. Clothe your thoughts in words of beauty, grace and charity.
