Word Awareness

Your words have power! Your words will impact! Your words can heal! Your words can hurt! We have been given the gift to express ourselves with our words by various means of communication. When you make a joke it may not always be found to be funny due to the audience that you're making a joke too or the individual that you may be making a joke about. Sometimes you may make a comment that can negatively impact an individual as you may not have awareness as to the circumstances they may be facing. Your words may not have been intentional but the impact remains, and for some they feel the effects at a later time. This is not to state that we have power over what others think or allow to influence them, however it's to realize that we all have moments in our journey where we are vulnerable. Regardless if the effects of your words are short lived you still had an impact. Instead of telling someone that they took it the wrong way or that you didn't mean what you said try thinking before you speak. Think if your words are uplifting and motivating or otherwise reconsider if they need to be said. Try to keep in mind that you are not in that individual's shoes and you can have an impact that can help them or cause harm.

Peace, Blessings, Love and Light
