#46 -- Words

Whether you speak them, sing them or write them -- words will make up your world. You may chose your words carefully, or just let them fly -- or hopefully learn the best times to use a little of both styles. Regardless, the power of your words will be immeasurable. Use them. Use them wisely.

You will hear or read other people's words and say, "I wish I could speak/write like that." And people will remember conversations with you where your words impressed, hurt or changed them.

The truth is that actions won't always speak louder than words. Sometimes there will be nothing that you can do to help a situation, but chose a few inspiring words. Other times, you will be at a loss for words, and these are times to just let them go -- because maybe nothing that you could say will help.

And from your first word (hopefully "mama"??) to whatever will be your last, what you have to say will be important. Find the strength in the mundane conversations of everyday life, and write your voice fearlessly.
