The life I touch for good or ill will touch another life and that in turn another, until who knows where the trembling stops or in what far place my touch will be felt. Frederick Buechner


Poem Artwork

When you breathe a word in wrath
Which causes another to be irritated?
And he passes this to another
Angry words from one who is exasperated
And still this anger is passed to a brother
But its impairment doesn’t end
Angry words are like mighty rockets zoomed
Missiles Shot into the atmosphere
They can create for another a feeling of doom
And also to anyone who is near
So before you speak an angry word
Think first of the power you embrace
For you know not who these comments may hurt
Would it not be better to speak with love and grace?

It certainly would, Lew. A fine thought provoking write.

Well said. I hadn't looked at it quite like that, I just figured angry words were spoken from a perspective of being "powerless", a simple reaction to a complex issue.

Stuff You Can Say Everyday by D. Mullis

My son wrote a book of his personal, one liner quotes. Never underestimate the power of simple statements! A very interesting read!
