They are angry, don't think but they wouldn't throw a punch, they throw and insult.
But insults can be so many...
The one that wounded most were the unespected one, that shouldn't had be said, anger or no anger, the bell can't be un-ringed, the sound of it will reverberate long after we have forgotten whom it was...the caller.
It goes in 5-6-7 and eight line strophes
This is the story
of three things,
big and small,
a hand, a window
and a stone.
The window didn't
ask to be shatter,
nor did the stone
ask to be thrown,
the hand was the one
doing all on its own.
An insult travels
too very long,
it won't be forgiven
nor it will be forgot,
like the window
won't forget
being hit by one stone.
An insult is like
a not so small stone,
which the hand
unthinkingly will throw
to shatter a friend's
window, or the one
belonging to someone
that you love.
This kind of hurt lingers and will often resurface adding more pain, I have endured this in the past, and would rather be hit with a stone! Wise message here my friend...
Blessings,
Joyce Bowling
Stick and stones may break my bones... but instead they hurt from the inside out! good muse... :)

I loved the message George in this one.

I like this: so simple, so clean, so direct, so clear and so true.

I believe if we all look deep within our souls and are not proud enough to say so will be able to confess to the fact that at one point in time or another we have ALL insulted someone. Unfortunately some make it an occuption and even worse are those that are in denial and choose not to admit it.
Wise words, from a wise man Georg. God Bless, Holly

A dozen roses has helped in the past, as well as pleading, begging.
Yup great Allegory...

They say, for every insult you need to try and reverse it with 7 compliments! I don't know who "they" was, it could of been mom, but I have tried to live by the rule! It is so hard to reverse the affects but we all do it and must think ahead before we shatter a life!
Well done and a great message Georg!
