Words


Words are spoken, some encourage, others hurt, as they say, you can tame almost everything in the world, but never the tongue.

Words cut sharper than the blade, they pierce through you without your knowledge. Words are the strongest weapon of all. Words stop wars, words trigger wars, words encourage people, words bring inspirations, but words also bring a person's down fall. Words hurt alot, especially when they are spoken at the wrong time.


Speak what your hearts desire, but remember this rule when you speak, if you want to speak about someone, speak the truth and speak it right in the face of the person. For critical words do hurt, but they hurt more when the person finds out about it, not through your mouth, but the tongue of others.


Words come out of our mouth, sometimes so sudden, almost without any thoughts to it. Ask yourself a question, when is the last time you praise someone? When is the last time you actually tell someone that she look pretty or he is smart? It's been awhile since you do that huh? Why is it so hard to praise people? Why is it so difficult for us to open our mouth and tell someone that he or she is doing well?


One day, a little boy took an apple out of the refrigerator, he washed it and wanted to take the first bite, but, before biting the apple, he realised that at top of the apple there was a small part of it which was spoilt, without thinking further, he took the apple and wanted to throw it into the dustbin. A hand came and stopped him, it was his mom, she said " Why are you throwing the apple into the dustbin?" the little boy answered " It's spoilt at d top, can't eat it, so i decided to throw it away." his mom took the apple from him, took a knife, and cut off the part of the apple in which was spoilt and passed it back to the little boy, then said "Look, it isn't spoilt now, isn't it? All you need is to cut of the part which is spoilt, then you'll have an edible apple again." The little boy, took the apple, smiled and went away eating it happily.


Similarly, we are like apples, everyone of us, thus try and focus on the good points of each person instead of their bad points, then you will be able to praise someone sincerely through your heart. Remember, the fist does much, the mind does more, but words, does most; it crushes hopes and it builds them up, it comes meaninglessly sometimes, but it stays forever in our hearts, words affect people's life, words encourage and discourage one. Words are the greatest weapon and yet, at the same time, the greatest aid.

Love, Faith, Hope. . . . .

With love comes faith, and with faith, comes hope. As they say, there's three important elements in life, love, faith and hope, and love is the greatest of them all. Without love, you wont have faith, and without faith, you wont have hope, thus love leads to everything and everything comes from love. Love is affection, love is trust, love is everything you need, love is the only thing in your life that would fulfill all things, it doesnt matter who you are, it doesnt matter what you want, it doesnt matter what you are looking for in life, because, without love, everything would be meaningless.


Love is mercy, love is kind, love is unexplainable and love is just plain love. To love someone, is to be able to trust the person as much as you trust yourself. To love someone is to be able to sacrifice whatever you have for the person, including your own life. To love someone is to be able to forgive forever for whatever fault the person makes. To love someone is to be able to accept the person for who he or she is. Loving someone is to love the person for no other reasons but because he or she is no one else but themselves.

Faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. Faith is the confidence in something you believe in. To have faith, first have confidence, to have confidence you have to believe strongly in what you believe in. Faith doesnt come over night, faith is built and grown over a long period of time. To have faith is to have no fear or doubt in whatever you believe, but, remember, faith cannot exist without love, this is because with love comes belief, and with that comes faith. Faith does the right thing at the right time.

Hope is something in which people want and really wish for. It is something that brings life out of a person, something in which gives a person a sense of fulfillment in his or her life. Without hope, there is no life at all.

These all come with a choice, you make a choice to love, you make a choice to have faith, then you will have hope in life. Love is as much a question of the will as it is of the emotion. And if you will to love somebody, you can. And with love comes faith, and with faith comes hope, and with hope comes life. A life without love, is no life at all.

A Reason to write!



words, full of meaning
words, that i mean each
and every one of them
stuggle to come out!

emotions, plenty of them
neatly bottled up inside;
words for each occasion;
words for each emotion!

struggling to come out,
causing a huge traffic jam
inside my mind
leaving my heart with no peace!

a stream of words
rushed out from my heart;
bottled up inside,
they queued up!

queued up inside my mind
causing more chaos and
adding to the bottleneck inside
i struggle to find a way!

i struggle to find a way
to let you know what my heart says;
i struggle to pen words
to my emotions!

struggling each and every minute
i try to find a reason behind all this
i strive to find an answer -
when i am struggling to express myself to you,
what’s the reason that forces me to write?
