WORDS are POWERFUL. Words can make you or break you.

Words are like seeds, they grow and come back to haunt you.

Be sure whatever you sow, you will reep.

The tongue is like a little fire that can become a small grass fire, then a forest fire, then an uncontrollable fire.

Words can inspire you or destroy you.

Think about the words you speak, it cost nothing to give someone praise, compliments and encouragement and it will come back to you.

Example: A little boy after the sermon and shaked the pastor's hand and slipped a quarter in the pastor's hand. He did it again the 2nd week and at the third week the pastor said, * you don't have to be doing this every week* the little boy answered * it's because my dad said you were the poorest pastor he ever saw* lolllll

Winston Churchill was known for some of the greatest speeches and known also for some bad choice of words.one time he was drunk and one woman said, *Mr. Churchill you are drunk to which he answered. * Madam and you are ugly, at least tomorrow I will wake up sober!*

It may be funny but those words came back to haunt him.

A small word can start a huge fight, a war, a murder etc.

So be careful and bite your tongue seven times before saying something that you may regret all of your lives.

Me the first..lollllllll

Have you ever said anything to anyone that you regretted and came back in your face?

I think all of us have had this happen to us in our lives. I have a saying.. what goes around comes around so duck! I try to think my words out but yes at times I blurt something out and regret it later. I think this is something we all need to be reminded of often in life.

So true, I have to watch mine all the time, especially if someone angers me. Oh boy, I say things sometime I don't even think or would say.

So, I try not to let my EGO get the best of me and just stay silent.

How can anything continue if you don't say anything back?

I notice that the person doesn't know what to say because I don't answer and that person looks pretty foolish talking to themselves. lol.

But it isn't easy not to let the Ego get the best of me.
