Why Hurt Strand Select 12

Why do we use words that hurt each other, we would have been slapped by our mother. Why do we do hurtful little things and big things, do we not know it hurts and we are not showing our angel wings. Do we not think or care, sometime it make me want to swear. We put someone in tears and for what, we may have even tied their stomach in a knot. Last night there was no sleep, so today without sleep I feel like a creep. Why do we hurt people, it is simply dreadful. Maybe watching our words and actions, would bring us loving reactions. (We may not know the battles others are fighting, so be an angel and be kind.)

well done Polyanna. No, I mean it that you are the kind of person who "is the change they want to see in the world." But never again allow others' words to take your beauty sleep. Ask the Holy Spirit to work on their hearts, as U pray for their growth & healing. Hurt people hurt people. ShalomShalom Sis

Thank You, for reading and writing. Glad you like it. True, hurt people do hurt people. It is hard to give 110% and then get hurt by them. It is a shame that people can't seem to get along but guess that is what they call life. Have a great day writing.................
