This last month has been something else... It has had me pondering much about myself, my progression, what I want out of life... And the same thing keeps coming back and showing up in my space.
Sadie Lee - WORDS MATTER
Life sucks sometimes. Why am I... 51 years old and I am just barely taking the time to even care and even process this?
I feel so dumb that this is even a topic that I am reviewing.
YES, I know people are hurt by words, I am
YES, I know that my tongue is like a sword -My mom would tell me this all the time
YES, I know I have slashed and wounded the strong and the weak.
YES, I did care
YES, I said I am sorry
BTW- Words have controlled ME for as long as I can remember.
I take things personal
I don't think before I speak
I literally have spent 27 years in a Marriage being defensive, insecure, believe the worst of what I deserve and it's the control of Words - that I couldn't control that hurt the most.
The CONTROL topic- is for a different post.
Words. create feelings. they create heartache, love, depression, anxiety, fear, faith, hope, and so many other feelings and emotions.
This blog is not going to have the answer to solve anyone's issues with words and how you distribute or contain them.
This is simply ME, fessing up to the MESS I have been in my use of Words and the way I have allowed other peoples words to control me.
This is simply a confession of change, writing down my goal to be better, to speak better, to choose better.
I am 51, and my days are numbered. And I really want to live what I preach.
Give Grace
See others' Hearts the Way God does
Give the Benefit of the doubt
Use my choice of Words Wisely
Do not throw my Pearls before Swine (this to me means, sit silent when I could really obliterate someone)
