a thought on words

I really don’t have anything to say today, nothing profound or unheard of, nothing new or original. All I have is a desire to write and change, by way of speech and words, the status qou, the way things are. Words are the most powerful things in the world, they sway the minds of leaders and the led, they shape constitutions and plan military coups. Without words there would be no songs, no poems, no stories to inspire. Without words this would be a lifeless planet with no beauty, a mean petty world with no love and no mercy. Words are life to the spirit, the soul, the heart. They can tear down or build up, rebuild a broken ego or amour an existing one. Used properly they bring peace and a sense of rightness, improperly they bring strife and anger, then again these are just ways to use speech and words, not rightly or wrongly. Words are the cornerstone by which we live, by which we express our beliefs and ideas, without them we would be a billion islands lost in the sea of humanity.
