Just a Thought…

by joi on May 11, 2006

A thought ran through my mind today.  If you had as few quality thouhts as I’ve had lately, you’d brag, too.

I was thinking about words - the ones we say, the ones we write, the ones we whisper, the ones we yell. Sometimes, we will absolutely just say anything.  Especially when we’re angry, sad, disappointed, offended, or just plain in a bad mood.  We’ll open up and let it fly - irregardless of what it is and how it‘ll hurt someone.  Sometimes, because it will hurt someone.

These very words- these hateful words - could be our last.  Literally

Or they could be the last words the person on the other end of them hears.  Literally.

They say we aren’t guaranteed tomorrow.  Actually, we aren’t even guaranteed the next hour.  Oddly enoug, we put twice as much thought into our appearance than we do our words - yet it’s the words that carry the heaviest eternal ramifications. 

Just a thought.
