the power of words.

its funny to think how powerful a string of words can be.

i love you.

i dont want you anymore.

delicately placed or forcefully spoken.

words can start wars, break hearts, tear apart families and break spirits.

but they can also bring smiles, warm a heart and save a life.

and the problem with words is that every literate person in this world holds a power beyond their belief. the damage and miracles that can come from speech is outstanding.

partner this with an amazing personality, breathtaking eyes and a flawless smile and its no wonder the biggest headlines on the news are murder, rape, kidnapping, stabbing ...

and who gets to determine the power of words? is it the person who speaks them or those that choose to listen?

words have been crafted and idolised by some of the worlds most famous characters. presidents like Lincoln and Roosevelt, phenomenol figures like Martin Luther King Jr and William Wilberforce, literautre geniuses like Shakespeare and Austin. But out of these how many intended or knew of the power and influence their words would have?

dont forget the small words to you can have the biggest influence on the people around you.

i hate you.

i want you.

i need you.

i miss you.

i cant see you anymore.

consider the words that construct the speech of your lifes story.
