Why? We say things that we know will hurt others. We act in ways that we know would hurt others. But for what? What satisfaction does it bring? Happiness? Joy? Pleasure? Do we get a high out of fighting with others? That we simply don't notice until the fight is done and over with? All I know it that I physically cannot take it anymore. I am breaking down. It's NOT fair. For anyone.
Words are singularly the most powerful force available to humanity. We can choose to use this force constructively with words of encouragement, or destructively using words of despair. Words have energy and power with the ability to help, to heal, to hinder, to hurt, to harm, to humiliate and to humble.Just remember, YOU have the choice construct or destruct someone. There is a limit as to what to say to someone, if you have to think "should I say this?" DO NOT say it. It WILL hurt them in some way shape or form. They may not show it right away, but it hurts, a lot. And it will dwell on them for a very long time. But if you're like me and you speak before you think, work on it. It's a hard thing to work on, trust me, I know. But it needs to be done. This needs to stop. Just think how upset you get when someone fights with you, now times that by 20, because we never truly know how much we are hurting that person. No one says everything, and they certainly won't tell you after taking away any sense of security that they built up with you.
