The impact of your words….

Hurt people, hurt people.

The words we speak, the way we speak are very important and we ought to be cognizant at all times. What you see and take as a joke, might be someone else’s life or situation.

I remember some of the hurtful Things people have said to me and how it stayed with me depending on what was going on with me at that time, meaning when you say positive things to people that could elevate them, motivate them, bring them peace or even make them smile, that is a gift and those people will never forget how good your words made them feel and what impact it had in their lives. However when you are a naysayer, and see only the worst in people or feel that it is OK for you to speak to people negatively or approach them negatively then you leave a bitter taste and experience with them.

Always be mindful that your words can make or break a person because you just don’t know what is going on with that person’s mental state at that time. I am a believer and I believe in God and that has been my greatest accomplishment when dealing with people that try to make me miserable because they are miserable, attack and bully me with words and sometimes their actions. Yes I have read books, attended different classes about human behavior and so on. And they all have helped but believing in God that has been my calm. So no matter what anyone says to you negatively, find the strength to turn it around and build on it positively. You’ve got this!

I’ll explain in depth as we go on about how faith has helped changed and shaped my responses to negative outlook, until then, the truth is staying positive no matter your situation and staying strong despite all odds. Yes you.
