Year Of Focus: Week 46

Word Of The Week: Words

the text or lyrics of a song, as opposed to the music

Words are a constant part of our lives, whether we are in a conversation with others, writing or reading, words are our way of communication. How much of what we hear can transform our thoughts, or can change our minds? And how can we become more aware of the words we speak and listen to, deciding if they align with our journey. 

I love words, how they capture a mood or a feeling, alter our view and teach us new things. My office and library are filled with books, words, stories. It is inspiration overload, and I make it a priority to spend time in both. Exploring thoughts and details of a lifetime and finding ways to use words to bring them to life brings a sense of satisfaction. 

Our words can provide comfort and produce pain. Choosing words mindfully is a part of our power. Just because we have the vocabulary, does not mean we should use them all. A part of the power in our words of course comes from the ability to choose the right words and knowing when no words say more.
