Day 10: Words Can Hurt
By Amilcar Arevalo · From the book Let GO and Let GOD
Words have a strong impact on people and can cause lasting emotional pain. Hurtful words can leave deep scars on you and on another person's life. Verbal abuse, insults, and demeaning comments can be especially damaging. It is crucial to carefully consider your words before speaking, as once they are said, they cannot be taken back. If you feel upset, it's best to take your time before responding.
“There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword: but the tongue of the wise is health.”
