What is a word? Several alphabets strung together in a way that means something. If you didn't know any better, you would think it doesn't mean much - after all, millions of words fly by our eyes and ears each day - fleeting, forgettable, like raindrops splattering down from the sky in a storm.
But words mean something. When used correctly, they can inspire and heal. They can also be like weapons to injure and hurt. What we write and say can make someone's day - or can spoil it. Words are powerful.
And this is even more true to those close to us. So pick your words carefully.
