Think about this for a moment;
“No life is just the same after you have once touched it ; will you leave a ray of hope or one of despair, a flash of light or a somber cloud across some dark life each day; will you by thoughtless cruelty deepen the shadow which hangs over the life, or will you by kindness dispel it altogether? No matter how you feel or what is disturbing your peace of mind, never allow yourself to send out a discouraging, a cruel, or an unkind word or thought.” – Orison Swett Marden
So true! The thing that worries me are the words that spring forth without intent to hurt yet are interpreted as hurtful.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts here Leslie. I think that if we take a little time to ask how are the words I am about to say, be regarded by the other person? We may be able to use words in the right context, or have them deliver the messages we intended appropriately. Blessings.
