A careless word may kindle strife,
A cruel word may wreck a life,
A bitter word may hate instil,
A brutal word may smite and kill.
A gracious word may light a day,
A kindly word may keep loneliness away,
A timely word may lessen stress,
A loving word may heal and bless.
(Author Unknown)
Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt,
that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.
Colossians 4:6

I love this post! Thank you.
This is so true Samantha. Mama and Daddy always told us to be kind..if you don't have something nice to say then say nothing at all. I think it would do us all well to think before we speak!
Blessings my friend,
