Words So Sweet ~*Marge Tindal*~ Those unkind words that fell from your lips so easily can never be taken back. Temper your words with time to reflect on the impact they will have on the ears they reach. Before you say a word roll it around on your tongue a time or two. How does it taste? If it tastes bitter then that's how it will sound to the listener on whose ear it falls. If it tastes sweet, send it on. Calories aren't counted when it's sent with love. Sent with love, received with love. It really is that simple. ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Oh boy Marge, you sure gave perfect instructions with this little beauty.... It's funny how often words come back, bringing with them the sting that was felt when they were first said. Now after rolling them around in my mouth awhile...let me whisper I LOVE THIS!!!! Bonnie |

These are lovely thoughts, Marge, and a very good suggestion. Thank you. To love another person is to see the face of God. - Les Miserables Marilyn |

BrokenWingedAngel~ Thanks for picking that one out - gives me a chance to say that if we chose our words as carefully as we counted calories, it'd be a better world by far. Glad to know you enjoyed it, dear. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

It is mentioned often in the bible that words cannot be revoked. Take for instance when Isaac was decieved and gave the first son blessing to Jacob instead of Esau. After that, when Isaac learned what Jacob had done, Esau begs his father to give him the blessing. But Isaac says that he can't because the power of the spokeen word is great. |
