Words
Humans cannot live without words
We can't stop expressing ourselves
Those who can't speak will draw and paint
Those who can't hear will sign and gesture
Those who can't express themselves will act
We were born innocent
Yet circumstances in life may change us
We are all sinners in one way or another
We pray to be better people tomorrow
We try to find the healing light of truth
When we do find it, we attempt to give light to others
We can't stop expressing ourselves
We never will and never can live without words
Whichever medium or method we use
We will always be sharing our thoughts
on cave walls, on wood, on paper, on TV
and now on the internet, on YouTube, on SNS
What really changed was the speed of sharing
The amount of content to take in
Do we overload ourselves with too much words?
Are we overwhelmed with facts and fictions?
Can we properly manage information as it comes?
...?
