Tongue is sharper and mightier than a sword.

“Words are, in my not-so-humble opinion, our most inexhaustible source of magic, capable of both inflicting injury, and remedying it.”   ~ Albus Dumbledore
Words are like coffee for the soul, it miraculously changes us in multifarious ways. It’s up to us whether we pour it out with the sweetness of love or bitterness of hatred. We never know few felicitous words spoken with sincerity of heart can make a difference in someone’s life, including even ours. Often we underestimate the power of a word, a touch, a feeling but sometimes the most trivial words like Thanks, Sorry, and Please, etc from the right person at the right time can turn someone’s whole day around and can create euphoria in a moment. Words are the most powerful weapon which can light happiness as well as wring tears from the hardest hearts.  It often happens with us, our ego inflicted mind stops us from saying something when it’s needed and later we regret for the unspoken words which remains unheard and unfelt forever.


The tree is known by it's fruit likewise we are known by our words. It’s said character defines personality, but choice of our words reveals the character within. The ways we speak are an expression of our own inner selves. The good man brings out good and evil man brings out evil. It’s up to us whether we enunciate constructively using words of encouragement, or destructively using words of despair. Our weightless words define our attributes. People overlooks demeanor, it's word which overwhelms them. Words are like arrows, once loosed we can’t call them back. We can mend the wound given by arrows, but the wound of someone’s words breaking our heart might not amend.Therefore we must avoid cacophonous and beguiling words and weigh our words before discoursing it.
Be a wheedler and use artful persuasion of thaumaturgic words, with love and gentleness imbibed in it because when we let love weave the words in our conversation people remember it forever.
