Throughout our lives we live by the
words we choose to use---We act
upon what we say,hoping things will
turn out that way
So it is, that with just a word,whether
written or vocal, we convey our sentiments
and their intent,according to the way they
were meant, which may cause credit or blame
to be accrued to our name
As writers we are devoted to words and
revere them, even as we seek to manipulate
trying to find the right ones to portray
them in a way that will captivate our readers
In our everyday exchange of words
as we communicate, we get into all sorts of
trouble,by misusing words, carelessly choosing
them ,causing much hurt, even harm, to others
especially the ones we love
Gaining wisdom, we hopefully choose to use words
with care, to consider what we're saying,before
we say it, which isn't easy, but it can be done,and
causes changes for the better,in relationships
One of the names for Christ is "The Word" (that
became flesh,and dwelt among us!") This caused me
to pondor that Creator cares deeply about the words
we use, and shall judge us by them

He gives us the gift to write. From there, we make our own choices. At times, I feel like I've chosen wrong. However, I wouldn't be me if I wrote about things I don't feel. I think that same weight rests on all writers who believe in God. This poem carries much wisdom and gets me thinking about the repercussions of writing from within. Love and Hugs,

The tongue and the hand can do it, but the most exalting or the most hurtful is the one in our thoughts.

And so it is even more so as writers that we follow your wise advice to think before we speak.
Thank you for a timely reminder, Eileen.

I always try to choose my words wisely, but you know human error is sometimes the culprit and one must forgive such miss use of a word here and there.
As always, you inspire me to write words..
I wish you much,
Peace, love,and light,
