Words - A Creative Force
We can’t touch words but our words can touch one’s heart and
soul. The words we speak can put a smile on someone’s face or bring tears to
another one’s eyes .We can encourage one other with the words we speak or crush
hopes and dreams of one by not watching what we say. Our words are more
powerful than we give them credit .
They are indeed a creative force.
We are the masters of our unspoken words and slaves of the
spoken ones . It solemnly depends on us decide what we want the outcome to
be .All of this crashed to me when I came across this ayah (verse) from the
Quran that said
“The believers of the most merciful are those who walk upon the Earth
in humility and when the ignorant address them , they say words of peace”-Quran
[25:63]
This made me comprehend that the most important part of our life is actually the ability to use
words . They define our values , our personality . We are no better than our words , we are no greater than our words . The character of our
words is the character of our personality so we got to choose them wisely .
Our life is just is the expression, the manifestation , the
reflection of our words and where we are today is ultimately a result of
something we said right or wrong . Ever since I realized that my words had so
much power I trained myself to never use abusive or negative language .I can
say everything I ever need to say without pilling on insults, and without denigrating
the other person .
It is also important to keep in mind that where your
attention goes, so goes your emotional energy . Focus on positive things and
your life will be positive. Avoid saying negative things about other unnecessarily,
when you say destructive things about others –your emotional energy is also
negatively affected. However if you want to point out deficiencies for the
purpose of helping someone improve in certain areas , use tact and diplomacy to
focus on performance issues and always avoid personal attacks.
“Any fool
can criticize , condemn and complain but it takes a character and self control
to be understanding and forgiving” – Quran
Refrain from negative conversations and help yourself to
being a person of kind words . “Generosity
is an easy thing , it is a smiling face and kind words” – Umar (ra).It’s
that simple refuse to be a part of groups who speak poorly of others .You are
surrounded by people who are thrive on cutting others down , reconsider with
whom you spend your time .
Friends , it matters how you speak .It matters how you
express yourself .And this has nothing to do with your religion , these quotes I
am sharing are from my favourite book (Quran) every religion preaches kindness
and peace and you will always get better results if you speak nicely to others
. Speak the truth but kindly and politely .
“No one
who has the weight of arrogance in his heart will enter paradise” – Quran
“If a man defamed you
with what he knows about you , do not defame him with what you know about him .
For the sin is against him”-Mohammed (S.A)
“Show forgiveness,
enjoy what is good and turn away from the foolish”-Quran[7:199]
Until next time
Polý agape (lots of love) and stay cheerful :)
