Yes, our words spoken or written can do permanent damage. Kindness is always good and the pay back is excellent. Thanks for the visit to my page. Sara

Freedom of speech does not include being rude. One can agree to disagree.

'Steep' works well here, Alexis. Free speech can cost plenty sometimes. Nicely done monoku!

While free speech may give the right to say offensive things, it doesn't mean others are required to listen~
