The Point of No Return
It wasn’t as simple as just crossing another river. During the 49 BC, by law no Roman general could lead armed troops into Rome. But Julius Caesar led his thirteenth legion across the river Rubicon and into Rome, it was considered a treason and the impact of that decision was irreversible that led to civil war before the great ROMAN general became the absolute ruler.?
The phrase “Passing the Rubicon” is a metaphor for passing the point of no return.?
There are times when we cross relational Rubicon with the words, we say to others. Once spoken, words can’t be taken back
Nothing can offer help and comfort or do the damage that feels just as irreversible as Caesar’s march to Rome
If we are not careful with our tongue, it’s like a fire. We should be very careful not to cross the Rubicon with anyone

?So, let’s try our very best to be careful of the words we say. Let the words we speak mend a broken heart and help repair a shattered mind.
