Words...Meaningful words, pointless words and hurtful words. Words of love, encouraging words, supportive words. Words every where and I think sometimes we are just too flippant with our words. I believe a lot of times we don't really treasure the words that we're given or the words that we say. Sometimes the words we use come flying out of our mouths before we even think about it and other times we don't use our words when we really need to.
I was thinking about this the other day. Words-in general. I was thinking of words that I use all the time such as "it's all good". This statement of words you'll hear from me when I am nervous, don't have the "right" words to say or when I just don't feel like getting into it with someone. I use them as safe words a lot. "Fine" another word that I use often, for me personally I feel like this word covers hurt for me. That it's really not "ok" with me, but whatever it is what it is...I don't like that word really. Makes me uneasy. Another word I use..."trust". This word doesn't come out of my mouth often but when it does, either it's been broken or it's been granted to someone.
Words...how do you use yours'? What is your statement of words that you use when it comes to life? What is your reasoning behind them? Do you ever think of the meaningless words that we use or the pointless words....or do you focus on the loving words, the supportive words, the trusting words. I am working on the later part of this. I want to be known as someone who lifts those up with my encouraging, supportive, trust, loving words....that is my hope.
