Stinging Words

How often have we felt it, when hurtful things are said? When someone says such painful things you wish that you were dead. Many times we just don't realize the pain we tend to cause when we say things to instigate the laughing and applause. The sting of words is painful. The scars will linger long. We carry hurt around with us even when we know it's wrong. So, choose your wording wisely. It hurts more than you know. Sometimes the ones you hurt the worst are the ones you never know.
