I tend to weigh every word that comes out of my mouth. It used to drive Daddy crazy, but I think he understands now, that I am trying to frame it in a respectful, constructive way. <br /><br />I do make a conscious effort to use my words to build him up, he does as well. For me, that's something I have never experienced. It's quite lovely :)Junehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03940211128244967387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8497106283340212317.post-86077895110239561352013-01-04T22:18:24.682-08:002013-01-04T22:18:24.682-08:00You know, I think it is interesting how each of us...You know, I think it is interesting how each of us responds to words, whether it is meant to hurt or not. My husband can say something which to him is a simple statement. However I may shock the ***t out of him when my feelings are hurt. He is amazed by how I may perceive what he feels is an innocent or honest comment.<br /><br />I always like to think about the intention of words instead of those accidental marks.

Words have...*Mad giggles* Cat called me Lillie :-P<br /><br />Words have an amazing power, [we examined the words we use in a post a while back - (The Power of Words - July '12)]. An apology is so many things at once, most importantly, a way to understand that someone loves and values you enough to humble themselves, and to strengthen your relationship immeasurably. How we handle the apology is as important as how we speak to each other. <br /><br />You couldn't be a much better person, Cat - we'd all need sunglasses, lol.<br /><br />(((hugs)))Junehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03940211128244967387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8497106283340212317.post-48526556885560173382013-01-04T06:42:17.401-08:002013-01-04T06:42:17.401-08:00Another wise and thought provoking post, Ward. Wo...Another wise and thought provoking post, Ward. Words are very powerful and can be very personal. What might not bother me might hurt someone else depending on our backgrounds. So if we are not careful, we can really hurt someone with the use of one small word. <br /><br />Lillie, I love your POV and that is something I have to really work on. I am very uncomfortable when someone apologizes to me and just want to accept it quickly and move on. Not because I don't value their apology but because I have received so few, I don't know how to accept one gracefully.<br /><br />Thank you both for a post that I will come back a read several times to try and help me learn to be a better person.<br /><br />Blessings,<br />CatCathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14266606975978680188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8497106283340212317.post-40929992384770049152013-01-04T06:03:00.132-08:002013-01-04T06:03:00.132-08:00Definitely another wonderful post!!
