I often find myself speaking because I feel the need to say something. Whether the circumstance determines this a good thing or not, it is a mixed bag. What compels me to open my mouth and speak? Is there something really of worth to share? Might I just be taking a liberty when perhaps I shouldn't? Too often people feel the need to speak. I believe that words are very powerful. I believe they have the potential to encourage, heal and to also hurt. I wish I knew with certainty that I would only offer my words to encourage. Only to love and let those around me know how much desire for them to succeed and grow. I fail in this. Perhaps I should also forgive those who make the same mistakes. Who am I to hold this grudge against anyone?
