I was inspired by the article by @Willtravis entitled "Talking Carelessly" that explained how powerful words are. Many articles I've read about it. So, I decided to make an entry not for comparison or whatsoever. My intention is to share my perspective and thoughts regarding it. Still in the process of learning and coping with this environment and platform. Have a great day everyday to you😊❣️
All the creation of God has a brain but humans have a unique brain to think wider and creatively. Do humans use their brains? Technically, Yes, by making decisions, doing schooling, and many more stuff that involves thinking. We also cannot deny the fact that there are times. We humans don't use brains in talking, especially when our emotions are high. We tend to speak harshly and hurtful words. Note I am not generalizing.
Words are indeed powerful. It could be an encouragement, inspiration, blessing and a destroyer into someone's life. Wise man said " Don't speak when you are angry or sad." Once these emotions take over we can talk carelessly without filtering our words. Emotions are one factor of why we talk. When we are happy, our words are full of good words, appreciation and everything comes out thanksgiving. When we are sad, our words are full of sadness and seeing the lapses and flaws. Worst is when we are angry, hurtful, hatred and curses are the comforting words to express our madness. Some people need to talk freely for them to be okay.
Even the Bible says that words are power and it was tested about the creation of the world. In Genesis, it was all spoken by God through His words the world became that's powerful words are. Even parents that moment they speak, we children will listen attentively because we know the consequences ahead.In school, teachers' words make us do what we don't like. Example, do dancing though you're not a dancer, singing though you're not a singer, draw though you're not an artist and so many to mention stuff that we need to obey. We are obliged to dance because it's our teacher's words. Our mouths speak what's in our mind and not all in our minds are good. Voting wisely is very common at election time. Let me rephrase it as "choose wisely". Choose your words being used and choose who you talk to.
Using the brain while talking is not difficult. Healthy brains will produce a healthy mindset. What we reap, what we saw. In applying that, when we surround our brain with good things and positivity and love, surely our choice of words are full of motivation and inspiration but when they are surrounded with negatively our mind will become a "crab mentality" pulling someone's life into a mess and bringing them down using talking nonsense about them and seeking their flaw to attack them. It's important to check what foods we feed our minds for us to become what we are today.
Personally speaking, as human as we are, we committed mistake, saying hurtful words towards someone's life but one thing I realized it's never too late to say sorry and make ourselves new by change mindset and negatively. Yes, we use our use everyday but it didn't stop that. It must be used in the brain in healthy ways by producing healthy fruits. It is an overwhelming feeling to live with a peaceful mind and healthy brains because we are able to see the goodness of life even in dark moments. Be kind to everyone co'z we don't know what they're facing. I, myself, am still in the process of not being exempted from changing into a healthy brain for the betterment of using my brain.
Be an encouragement not a discourager. Be an inspiration not expiration. Be a blessing not cursed. Be someone that someone with a healthy brain.
