I love "WORDS" I love the way "WORDS" can change a mood, make you smile, make you laugh, and we all know "WORDS" can make you cry. What would this world be without "WORDS"? There would be no learning, there would be no language, you would not even have a name. That is why parents are so joyous when a child speaks their first "WORDS" because that is where the journey begins. Then school and you wouldn't go far without "WORDS" . No history, no geography, no spelling, no stories and of course no teachers for they are the people who teach us to use "WORDS". We start slowly sometimes just learning the "WORDS" to identify yourself (Your Name) "WORDS" exchanged with each other allow us to form our first friendships. How would we ever communicate if not for "WORDS". Soon you learn enough "WORDS" that you are on your own and completely responsible for the "WORDS" you use. You can choose "WORDS" of kindness that you can exchange with friends and family or you can choose "WORDS" of anger that will hurt, offend, or even destroy the people around you. The "WORDS" you choose will always be your choice. Nobody can choose your "WORDS" for you. So choose your "WORDS" wisely. Then there will be a time in your life when you realize it's time for you to choose words of love, and find someone who wants to share their "WORDS" of love with you. Then comes comes "WORDS" of marriage and the "WORDS" I love you, and I do. Then you learn "WORDS" that allow you to earn a living, buy a home, own a car, and raise a family. Soon you will be passing the torch to your newborn as you try to teach them their first "WORDS." Then as your children grow and move forward learning their own new "WORDS" you and your significant other move ahead and you begin to share "WORDS of Wisdom. " You watch your children grow as you teach them the "WORDS" of God. So the final "WORDS" I leave you with is choose your "WORDS" carefully. Select only "WORDS" of kindness, happiness, love, and caring. "WORDS" are the foundation for your life. Don't choose "WORDS" that will give you a weak foundation, choose "WORDS" to strengthen your life. Yes I love "WORDS" they control every aspect of our lives from beginning to the end. The journey will be as good or as bad as your choice of "WORDS." In the beginning was the "word." and the "WORD" was with God and the "WORD" was God. Always choose "WORDS" that are sweet and tender, you never know when you may have to eat them. In closing I would like to say when people ask me what Do you do? I tell them I am a "WORD" artist, I paint pictures with "WORDS." <<< Cal Bambi "The word artist" ©riginal >>> calbambi@gmail.com
