On the flip side of the coin there are many things written in the world today that are negative, harmful, and just plain pollution to people's minds. It is all around us each and every day, and in my opinion these words are just like using a sword on people's minds. Moving on in my thoughts about The Power of Words, we come to the spoken word. No other creature on this earth has this truly remarkable ability that we take for granted most of the time. This is a very powerful ability we all possess, and it is what makes words so powerful.
Actions speak louder then words.
Today I would have to say that words speak louder then actions. If we cut our finger it will heal over a short period of time. If we break a limb, again we will heal over time. When it comes to harmful words though, healing is not so quick. The tongue is sharper then the sword, and each day the words of others hurt so many people.
