TODAY’S QUOTE:
” I know nothing in the world that has as much power as a word. Sometimes I write one, and look at it , until it begins to shine.”
Emily Dickinson.
My thoughts on this are brief. I believe that a word, written or spoken, has the power to lift someone up or shut them down. You hear so much about physical abuse, by both men and women, but the words are what often make abuse even less bearable. Words do not control a person but they can affect everything about a person.
Stine Writing 
that is so true, words can hurt deeper than physical torment

Yes and just like giving birth, you forget the physical torment….you don’t forget the things said to you.
