The Words

The Words

Words can have different meanings.? Words can have different pronunciations.

Words can bring clarity. ?Words can describe.

Sometimes words are perfect and other times imperfect.

Have you ever questioned what a word truly meant?

Do certain words come more naturally to us than others?

I like to play with words – their meanings, their sounds, turn them inside out or circle a bunch up together.

Words can label.? Words can hurt.? Words can be used as weapons.

Have you ever used the wrong word?? Have you ever used the right word at the wrong time?

Sometimes words pour out of our mouths in a torrent while in the next moment each word is chosen so carefully.? Do we have control over our words?

You learned words – from who? From where?? When we are young, we repeat the words we hear.? Does that continue as we age?? What words do we make our own?? Do we become less careful with the words we use as our experience grows or do we use more discretion?

What’s a new word you are wondering about?? What are some new words you need to learn?

In any relationship – words matter.? When leading others – words matter.

Which words will you use today?

I have certainly had my turn at bumbling my words. As I get older and face different parenting situations, not only do I hear myself using the same words my parents used with me, but the tonality is the same.
