I was reading another blog this morning and was struck by a phrase that was quite simple but quite important.

Our words carry hope.

In so many of our lives that sentence is missing a word. Can. Our words can carry hope.

Our words can also carry a lot of other things; anger, contempt, sadness, criticism, to name a few. But our words can also carry joy, gratitude, love, support, care, concern, enthusiasm……I could go on and on. You get the idea.

We each pick our own words to speak, write, yell, sing, whisper, mumble. We allow each of them to pass through our lips, our fingers or our pens. We can choose which words we allow to come out. Pick wisely.

What do your words carry?
