Words can Heal and Words can Harm .
Words are very important. Words can heal and words can harm. Words can hurt grievously and for a long time. The tongue can bless and the tongue can curse. It is veh important for us to control our words and tame our tongue when we are angry. Many tyms, when we are angry we say the most atrocious things.we forget ourselves and become indifferent to what we say. we blast the other person without mercy, although we may not mean those words. But
words once spoken cannot be taken back and it takes a long time to
forgive and forget. We have to exercise self-control. Many couples are particularly prone to such outbursts when they get mad. But it is not an easy thing to control our tongue when we are provoked,
boiled over with anger or have outburst of wrath. It is at such time that we have to learn to hold our tongue and to remain silent. If we carn tame our tongue, we have to take a break or go for a walk to
cool off. It is much easier to control the words before the blow-up
than during the explosion.Uncontrollable words spoken in anger can have devastating
effect. Angry words, that are used unthinkingly, such as "I don't care," "I can't be bothered," "I don't need you," or "you can go to
hell"causes pain and feelings of rejection. They give rise to
insecurity. The unmeant and foolish words contain full of deadly
poison and can play havoc in the mind. The unruly words get churned over for hours on end and create their worst mischief in a difficult relationship. It can take a very long time to forgive what was said.
Let us learn to turn away from angry words before they leave our
mouth and try to say healing words instead.It is so important to choose our words wisely. When we are boiling with anger and eager to throw bitter words at our opponents,
it is better to remain silent. Words spoken in rage will make reconciliation very hard. Choosing life and not death, blessings and not curses, often starts by choosing to remain silent or choosing
carefully the words that open the way to healing.Words can continue to do harm for many years .words can bring consolation, comfort, encouragement,
and hope. words can take away fear, isolation, shame, and guilt.
Words can reconcile, unite, forgive, and heal. Words can bring peace and joy, inner freedom and deep gratitude. Words, in short, can carry love on their wings. A word of love can be one of the greatest acts of love.When we choose to speak words of care, words of encouragement, words of praise, words
of love, words of admiration, positive words---they uplift and give
meaning to our lives. Everyday we need to give and receive words of
encouragement, hope and joy. We then create an environment that is
pleasant to be in and that gives us the confidence and courage to
cope with our stressful life here and now. do you noe , when we say to our parents, children, or friends, 'I love you very much'
or 'I care for you' or 'I think of you often' or 'You are my great
gift,' we choose to give life.Often, we want to hear words such as, "'I've been thinking
of you today,' or 'I missed you,' or 'I wish you were here,' or 'I
really love you.' It is not always easy to say these words, but such
words can deepen our bonds with one another.
Telling someone 'I love you' in whatever way is always
delivering good news. Nobody will respond by saying, 'Well, I know
that already, you don't have to say it again!' Words of love and affirmation are like bread. We need them each day, over and over.
They keep us alive inside."When we say, 'I love you,' and say it from the heart, we can give another
person new life, new hope, new courage. When we say, 'I hate you,'
we can destroy another person. Let's watch our words.At the same time, we must be careful that we are sincere in
our words because if we say, 'I love you,' without meaning it, then such words do more harm than good. But if these same words are spoken from the heart, they create new life. They give joy. They bring happiness. We have to make sure that our words are rooted from
our heart.What we live is more important than what we say, because the right way of living always leads to the right way of speaking. When we forgive our neighbours from our hearts, our hearts will speak forgiving words. When we are grateful, we will speak grateful words, and when
we are hopeful and joyful, we will speak hopeful and joyful words.remember , no one can make you feel inferior wihout your consent .=)).i gonna miss my class outin tml ! sadded~Blogged
