Watch Your Words

Sometimes silence heals more than careless speech.

By Rohitha LankaPublished 8 months ago 1 min read

Sometimes… your own ''mouth''

May become the reason

That makes you ''troubled'' without realizing it.

Words… even though they are light

But their effects may be ''heavy''.

Words… even though they float

But the wounds left behind… may be too deep to heal.

Sometimes…

Silence

May heal more than

Words that are not thought out.

Because in the world of living together

''Speaking properly''

Is as important as ''thinking well''.

Use your mouth to create, not destroy.

Use words with value

Don’t let them be weapons that come back to hurt yourself.
