[www.keralites.net] THE POWER OF WORDS

 

DEAR ALL,

Fun & Info @ Keralites.net

The "Power of Words" refer the the most powerful thing that man possesses, that he may use to influence others, either for good or for evil.

The power of words in our lives is immense.You have heard this old childrens saying: Sticks and stones can break my bones, but words can never hurt me. But we all know that the power of words can hurt even more."If you have sweet eyes you will like the world; if you have a sweet tongue, the world will like you". What a powerful and practical thought!!Our tongue is something that needs to be managed well. It would be very harmful and dangerous if we allow everything that comes to our mind to be expressed by the tongue. In fact, we should think several times before we say something that could hurt or upset people around us. Even if what we speak is true, it should be said in an acceptable manner.

Often, it is seen that we hold on to the words we hear, anyone saying, "I am proud of you", I am sure you will be able to do it. You have it in you to be successful, or a child saying, Youre my best friend.In conversations, if we care, we can motivate others with kind, positive words. Everyone, at some point in life, may need some encouraging words which might become his life-line. Teachers, parents, spouses, friends and even strangers play their part with words. Words can hurt as well as heal. So, why dont we choose to heal and nurture one another with kind words? Our words of kindness might encourage someone to face life again and motivate him to learn to have faith in the essential goodness of humankind

Lead your lives with compassion, kindness and love. Suffuse your life with love. Love is nectarine. It has unmatched sweetness. Therefore use always polite words. Even if you come across an enemy, offer your salutations to him. Do not turn your back upon even your enemy. Be friendly with everybody.God has given you a softtongue. You should not speak harsh words with your tongue.


The soft tongueshould always speak soft and sweet words.
One good rule to follow is to think of something pleasing or positive to say to everyone we meet or interact with. We should train our minds to think in this manner. We should start every conversation and relationship with a remark or observation that compliments the other person. Not only will we win friends for life but we would also make the other person receptive to our thoughts.

Start this simple practice today. Be on the lookout to praise something in everyone. If we look carefully, we will certainly not be disappointed. Every individual indeed has strengths. If we keenly observe, we will find several strengths which can be pointed out or highlighted. Care to be taken not to overdo this and sound like flattery. The other thing that people like to hear is their own names - use it liberally in your conversations. You will capture peoples attention, minds and hearts through this.

Last but not least"Speak pleasing words about people in their presence as well as absence.
