Please re-print, publish and issue to all those living upon our planet!

Is so easy to torment another person and then, damned hard to be a hero whilst doing so. What happened to the 'do unto others as you would..' ? No excuse not to, the same words are written in most if not all faiths.

A more than fine piece of writing, plus, written in what is obviously an honest thought process. Kudos.

Words once spoken can never be taken back and the pain, hurt they cause can never be erased. Thank you for reading, Emma and for your most kind review...

It's evident less talking is better than being talkative in social settings

[Marie]

Agreed! Thank you for reading and commenting, dear T. P...

A sort but powerful statement of wisdom. The old adage of if you have nothing good to say say nothing at all comes to mind. The paradox of a closed mouth speaking the yin and yang of its wisdom. Words do leave scars and once said like any other type of blow can not be taken back. Very nicely done.

Thank you for reading and for your very insightful review, dear poet...

I had to smile at this bit of profound wisdom. Words are like swords or fire and can work for or against you. I love it, Marie.
