Sunday morning thoughts... The other night I was out having dinner with someone I had just met. He was sharing this story about someone he knew and used the words loser and failure. I have to admit I was a big taken back at the harshness in his words, but then thought how we all label others or ourselves at times with painful, ugly words that are not true. I gently replied back to this person, Just because a person experiences a failure does not make HIM a failure. Or if we suffer a loss, we do not become a loser. Things happen and become part of our story, but it doesnt define us unless we allow it to. Of course I have been pondering this ever since. When words are spoken or thought over and over, we begin to believe and accept that they are true. Lets use care with the words we use, they create life or death in each of us. Our mouths are one of the most powerful gifts given to us, so use your power for good... May our words spoken about ourselves and others be filled with encouragement, truth, kindness and grace. I think if we did it would make this world we are living in a much better place.
