WORDS: Written or Spoken, are full of power. When i say power, i mean; ability to hurt and heal emotions, encourage or discourage even the bravest of hearts, chart the course of your life.
Your words can douse tensions or escalate it. The words that we speak while in the public or private places; while with friends or family members can easily influence decisions of our listeners for good or bad, gladdens a heart full of sorrows and make bright or gloom some one's day. Yea, that's how tremendrous our words are.
Likewise, posts and comments online and on forums such as these has the potential to incite violence which may lead to the act of violence been committed. Words has the capacity to build the bridge or widen the gap of unity amongst various tribes or group of people. The words in your mouth are like atomic bomb awaiting detonation. Alot of folks are suffering largely due to the fact that they failed to be cautious with the use of their mouth. We have read testimonies of people that got jobs, business breakthrough ideas on this forum. Why was that possible? Simply because some other folks decided to take advantage of this medium of communication to bless the public rather than to cause chaos.
Every suicide act began with a thought, and thoughts are product of words; your words might just be what might save a soul out there.

Our words count, be mindful of their use. The words of President Mugabe may sound funny but it has some biblical undertone. He said, "I believe in freedom of speech, but after speaking i can't guarantee freedom", and the book of Matthew 12:37 declares, "By your words you shall be justified and by words you shall be condemned."
I believe in freedom of expressing oneself in whatever way i choose, but there ought to be a a limit to all of these. Let's be mindful of what we say, post or comment. Your prosperity, peace, joy and happiness and that of your loved once depends on it.

Let me share with you a few real life experiences of some individuals to buttress my point..

A True story. Two girls got on a bus and they started talking to each
other. “Did you hear that Sarah got engaged yesterday?” “No, I never knew that!” “That’s amazing that Sarah got
engaged!!” “But she is so sloppy and
unorganized! How is she going to run a household?” “She is never on time. Also, she
cooked for us once and her food was terrible! Her new husband is going to starve!!” “She spends money faster than
she receives it. How will she get through the month?” So it went, on and on and on.
Behind the two girls was
another lady who suddenly spoke up. “I am sorry to interrupt you girls but I wanted to introduce myself. My son just got
engaged to Sarah. Now that I know this information, I will tell my son everything that you said about Sarah and he must break off the engagement immediately. I will also tell all my friends
how grateful I am to you girls for letting me know what Sarah is really like”. The girls were shocked. They
started to stutter and
struggled to find the right
words. “No, No” they said with trepidation. Please do not let your son break the
engagement.” “Sarah is wonderful! She will
make a great mother! She
really will!” “She is so warm, friendly and
caring”. “We were just talking. We never meant her any harm”. “Please don’t break the
engagement” they pleaded. However, the woman was adamant. “Thank you, but based on what you said, I will make
every effort to break it up as soon as possible. The girl you described sounds like a terrible person. I will inform my son immediately.” The girls were horrified and
crushed. After a short silence, the lady turned around to the girls and said “I am not the boy’s mother, but imagine if I was?” “Do you know the damage you could have caused to this couple? You almost destroyed a potential family just because you had nothing else to talk about?” “Words either build or destroy, use them wisely” the woman said sternly and with that she got off the bus.
