Words

Words you speak can cut deep. Words the young hear can persevere. Words can admit truth and lies. They can look toward the future and travel us back in time. Words teach and help keep track. They can propel someone forward or keep them way back. Words inspire; Words cause love and hate. Words cause anger, passion and even some debate. Words are the future, now and they can come from the past. What words of your do you want the world to remember and to last?
