Words: Weak or Powerful?
Words: weak or powerful? The answer is both. Words can be the most powerful things in the world, but they can also be the vilest when abused. They are able to move you, make you laugh and cry, think deeply of a situation, or bring convenience to your everyday life. But words have power beyond what we often realize. When used incorrectly or carelessly, words can cause so much pain that it becomes almost impossible to recover from them psychologically and emotionally.
The power that words have are only control by one person: you. You can use it for good, or you can use it for evil. A great example of using the power of words wisely is when you are with a friend and they've made a mistake and feel guilty about it. The way to help them get through this is not to point out the mistake over and over again; but instead, mention how well they handled the situation, or remark on their courage to let them know that they aren't a bad person at all. Power words can also be used to hurt someone emotionally as well. For example, if someone looks at you cross-eyed, you might say, "I can't believe how cross she is. I never see her that angry." Using a power word like "cross" implies that the person is not only angry but also crazy. As you can see, the power of words can be used for good or ill. There is no such thing as a truly positive word. If there were one word that could completely transform your life and help you to move towards what you want, it would be called a Super Power Word!
But before we can even discover these Super Power Words, we must first look closely at the power of words within us. We all have the power to create change in our lives -- and the way we choose to implement these changes will determine how successful we are. For example, if you want to lose weight, then you need to make a plan and start working towards it. If you envision yourself as a successful person who is happy with her life and confident in her abilities, then it is very likely that you will be able to succeed in achieving what you set out to do. However, if instead of envisioning yourself as someone who can accomplish anything, you see yourself as someone who is completely helpless or has no control over your life, then it becomes much more difficult for you to achieve your goals. To have true empowerment in your life, then you must have self-confidence and know that you can change your life. This is not to say that other people do not also play a role in your life -- they of course do. But once you are able to see yourself as someone who can control his or her own destiny and change his or her own life, it becomes much more likely that you will be able to make these changes. Again, the power of words is only controlled by you and how you choose to use them.
The point here is this: always be aware of what people say about you and do not take it personally if they make fun of your weight, appearance, or anything else. The most successful people in the world were all ridiculed or made fun of at one point or another, but they used the power of words to make themselves stronger. Words can be your greatest friend or your worst enemy -- it totally depends on how you view them. The next time that someone says something nasty to you, ask yourself how you feel after hearing their comment. If you feel strong and secure, then say to yourself: "That comment was only a word; I am secure and confident and I am going to be okay."
Words are powerful. They can lift us up and inspire us, heal us and hurt us, but only if we allow them to do so. Listen to what others say about you, but do not let it control your life. If someone says something bad about you, give them your blessings and ask them to hold onto it for you. Then they can use their words and make the best of it.
Words are powerful -- use them wisely and use them well.
Notice how the power of words can affect your life in either a positive or negative way, depending on how you view things and react to them. This shows that not all words are positive; but instead, they depend on how you look at them in order to figure out whether or not they are positive or negative. Do you think this is funny? Don't take this too seriously and enjoy it. I like to make fun of myself as well.
If you are interested in the power of words and have been struggling with the problems in your life, then try to use the power of words to your advantage. Watch what people say about you and think about how you can transform that into a positive. For example: If people say "I don't like you," then use the power of words to think, "They are only saying that because I am not good at that thing." If someone says "You are ugly," then use the power of words to think, "They are only saying that because they don't understand me very well." If someone says something negative about you, then use the power of words to think, "People who see me as beautiful are seeing me for something other than my looks. They see beauty in my heart and soul."
Words can be used not only for good but also for evil. In order to let the power of language guide your life, you need to create in yourself a strong sense of self-confidence and purpose. Nothing is impossible if you have self-confidence and are passionate about what you want. With the power of words, anything is possible.
And that's my version of the Super Power Words of Transformation, which I hope will become an interesting, fun way for you to think about this holiday weekend.
Conclusion: We are all going to die someday. And even if we don't die, we will all eventually age and eventually cease to exist. How should we deal with the end of our lives? Should we be afraid of death or is there any way to make it less painful? Many people believe that there is a "spiritual solution" to the question of death, but this is not true. Death is as much a physical fact as anything else in this universe -- so how do we cope with it?
But first, let's consider whether or not it makes sense to think about "spiritual solutions" for something that has yet to happen.
