Isn't it strange how a word can cause a lot of pain to someone and also a good choice of word can give a lot of happiness? The word is a magical thing. It can make a beautiful relationship whereas at the same time it can break the relationship. What we speak and how we deliver words are very important as we meet with a lot of new people throughout the day.
The words we speak are the most important thing. As I have said before, words are magical. They can change people's thinking towards you, change their behavior and also come to a good or bad conclusion about you and your personality. The words or the way we speak and behave is a major thing to make our personality acceptable in the society. For example you are the CEO of a very remarkable company but your behavior towards your juniors is not nice. You don't respect them and speak whatever you like to them. How would they judge you as a person? You would not be counted as a respectable person for them. Even if you earn a lot of money, if you speak whatever you like in front of people that makes them upset, if you are rude then they won't like you. Money is not everything, your behavior, your selection of words to speak determines your character. The words we deliver to a person are very important. We must think twice before we speak. We have learnt in many books or in many novels that words hurt more than knives. The words we speak can affect a person very deeply. Isn't it strange how it is possible for one to get hurt from a word? but I have seen many people whose relationships have broken apart just because of miscommunication or just because of an inappropriate word that they used. Whenever we are angry with someone we talk rudely and while talking we actually don't realize what we are saying. We use different words to take out our anger and all. But we forget what other people will be feeling by hearing those words we speak in anger. We must always think how we would feel if we were in that situation. My mother always tells me that whenever you speak, think many times and if we are angry we must not talk if we don't have control over our word. Your one word can hurt a person's feeling whether we have said that word in a joke or unknowingly. The knives or the pain that someone gives in our body is physical but the words that hurt us will always remain in our heart and mind. It affects us mentally. We also know that if we speak something that is disheartening for someone then that person can go overthinking. If someone uses words talking about your insecurities or flaws that will sure affect them mentally. There must be politeness in our words. If we don't have the kind of politeness and we show wrong behavior to others they won't judge us in a good way. The people simply make a conclusion that he/she is not a good person and dont deserve any kind of respect. In many families this kind of problem arises too. Sometimes parents tell the things that make their child insecure and their feelings get hurt. Sometimes the children also talk rudely with their parents. The situation is between a parent and child. It will get solved. But when it comes to society or other people, the situation won't remain the same. There are some people who get hurt but still dont show it , some people don't feel anything at all and there are some people who get hurt a lot. Slowly their behavior will change for you. They might not talk with you or might make distance with you because they have experienced how it feels when they talk with you. And as a result you hurt them with words. If we speak properly and treat everyone with the same respect they will give us back respect. If we encourage them with their insecurities then they surely will like to talk with us. If we have politeness in our words the people will like our behavior. Even if we are very poor but we are manared and respect everyone our standard will be higher than the rich person. If we do the correct word situation and have control in our words then we will never have any conflicts. Our relationship with everyone will remain nice and friendly. We are living in a society and it is important that we maintain good relationships with others. Whenever we meet someone what do we do? We talk with them and we greet them. And at the first meeting if we talk rudely or our words don't support us then the people might feel bad and awkward. Whenever we talk with someone we must talk with all respect, love and politeness.
We must be very careful with the words we use. We must never make fun of anyone. The words hurt deep and we must understand that. We should always try to see ourselves in place of the victim and then think. To be a respectful and honorable person, money is not important. Our behavior and the way we speak is very important. We must always remember that the way we speak reflects our character and judges our personality. .Remember that the words hurt deeper than the sword so whenever you speak, think many times.
