What you do in life matters more than what you say. If you don't believe that, try farting in a crowded elevator.

Do y’all remember how you learned to read? How many people learned phonics? Apparently, if you (or your children) were elementary school between 2000 and 2020, you most likely didn’t. But let me know! How did y’all learn to read?

I'm such a deeply loving person, that I get damaged easily in relationships. I'm a sensitive thing, my dudes. And I've had such a long pattern of never being first choice, being treated as an option, tossed aside then called back in again... that it's very difficult to believe anyone can be different. But, maybe. Maybe I just wasn't the right one for those people. And maybe if the right one finds me, the words they say will be real. And maybe being wanted, being loved, being the only one they want... maybe it will stop being confusing, and become peaceful. Maybe. ✨️💛✌️🌙 #wordsaremagic #wordsmatter #wordsarepowerful #trustyourintuition #loveagain #loveanyway #shesalover #lovelikethemoon #empathsbelike #empathproblems #emotionalhealing #healingmyself #inthefeels #lovelove https://www.instagram.com/p/CmqQ5d8ugzW/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Transformative Power of Words
Our words possess an incredible power that can shape perceptions, influence emotions, and impact relationships. The Bible often emphasizes the importance of our speech, cautioning against gossip, slander, and false accusations. In Proverbs 18:21, it states, "The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit." This verse underscores the profound impact our words can have, both for good and for harm.
When someone close to us spreads false accusations or gossip, it can be deeply hurtful and challenging to comprehend. It's a betrayal of trust and can leave us feeling wounded and misunderstood. In such moments, it's essential to remember that often, those who engage in such behavior may not fully grasp the gravity of their actions or the harm they cause. They might be driven by their own insecurities, misunderstandings, or misguided intentions.
Navigating through such situations requires strength and grace. It's crucial to resist the temptation to retaliate or engage in similar behavior. Instead, choosing to respond with patience, forgiveness, and understanding can help break the cycle of negativity. Ephesians 4:29 advises, "Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen." This verse encourages us to use our words to uplift and encourage rather than tear down.
While it may be challenging, finding compassion for those who have wronged us can be a transformative act. Recognizing that their actions stem from their own struggles and shortcomings can help cultivate empathy and foster healing, both for ourselves and for them.
Ultimately, being mindful of the power of our words and the impact they have on others is essential. By speaking with integrity, kindness, and wisdom, we can contribute to the creation of a more compassionate and understanding world, where our words serve to uplift and unite rather than divide and harm.

Spiritual Practice: Vulnerability and Encouragement
Do you ever have days when you feel a bit tender or fragile? Like if someone poked you too hard you might cry? I have those occasionally, and they usually have to do with insecurity about my writing. “Why do I bother,” “no one reads my books,” etc… It’s human to doubt ourselves and feel a bit down. Recently when I was feeling that way, a friend on Facebook posted a meme which said: How…

Stop telling people things are 'easy'
People often say things that are not helpful when giving advice - "It's easy", "If I can do it, you can do it", "You just need to try harder", "You'll get it next time", "If you wanted it badly enough, you would find a way". I get that they mean well. But sometimes people just CAN'T do things, or at least, can't do them as easily. Everyone's ability levels are different. We know that. Why does our attempt at support not reflect that?
If you tell someone that the thing they're struggling with is 'easy', if you say there's no reason why they shouldn't be able to do it, then by that logic if they continue to struggle, you are saying that THEY are the problem, or that they're the error in the equation. There's a good chance they'll internalise that and feel like a failure, especially if it comes from someone whose advice they trust.
A better form of verbal encouragement would look like, "I've done something similar in the past, can I share some tips I learned along the way?" Or, "I'm sorry you're struggling, what part are you finding most difficult and how can I help with that?" It's okay to acknowledge someone's shortcomings, if they themselves are acknowledging it and seeking help. It's way more honest and authentic and builds more trust than some empty platitude.
Another radical idea would be to offer practical support instead of advice, but we've wandered so very far from the concept of 'it takes a village' and now it's every man for himself. Nobody wants to 'feed a man a fish' because we've been taught that letting people work things out for themselves is more beneficial in the long run. But the reality is that some people won't have a long run, if they can't overcome some of the hurdles at the start of the race.
Words are important. The language we use matters. It can be be hard to train ourselves out of using phrases and auto responses we've used and heard others use our whole lives. But to truly empower someone you have to meet them where they're at, and let them know that you've got their back win or lose. That's what really counts.
Change is hard. Growth as a person can be uncomfortable. But finding better ways to support each other is worth it.

What You Say Matters

🤍🤍🤍
Words are very important, and how we use them is equally as important. This is where it's effective to understand your definition of words because all it takes is using the wrong word in a situation where it doesn't belong to not only misinterpret a situation but possibly water it down or escalate while spreading misinformation.

"Speak when you are angry and you will make the best speech you will ever"
Tumblr media
Ambrose Bierce was an American short story writer, journalist, poet, and American Civil War veteran. 
Born: 24 June 1842, Meigs County, Ohio, United States
Died: Chihuahua, Mexico
Military Service: Ambrose Bierce served as a soldier in the American Civil War. He enlisted in the Union Army at the age of 18 and fought in several significant battles, including the Battle of Shiloh. His wartime experiences greatly influenced his later works, and he wrote a number of stories based on his observations during the conflict.
"The Devil's Dictionary": Bierce is renowned for his satirical lexicon, "The Devil's Dictionary." Originally published as "The Cynic's Word Book" in 1906, the collection provides humorous and often sardonic definitions for words. Bierce's wit and sharp commentary on various aspects of society, politics, and human behavior are evident throughout the entries.
Disappearance: One of the enduring mysteries surrounding Ambrose Bierce is his disappearance. In 1913, at the age of 71, he traveled to Mexico during the Mexican Revolution and was never heard from again. The circumstances of his disappearance remain unknown, and it has fueled speculation and intrigue for over a century.
Journalistic Career: Before gaining fame as a fiction writer, Bierce had a successful career as a journalist. He wrote for several newspapers, including the San Francisco Examiner, where he worked under William Randolph Hearst. Bierce's columns often showcased his sharp wit and criticism of contemporary issues.
Realism and Occult Themes: While Bierce is often associated with realism and satire, he also explored supernatural and occult themes in some of his works. His short stories such as "The Damned Thing" and "An Inhabitant of Carcosa" incorporate elements of horror and the supernatural, showcasing a different aspect of his storytelling.
