Daily Question, September 17

What happens when I use words with intention?

  • Marnie Jackson

    Wow – this is very timely as I spoke yesterday without thinking…..
    Using words with intention allows us to be gentle in our message while still being assertive and compassionate.

  • Antoinette

    My mom just told me the other day that it’s a good idea to smile before you say anything. That seems like a wise intention.

  • Lee Anne

    One can kill the spirit of another with words or inspire hope, peace, and gratitude. Practicing ‘right speech’ is essential for me to sleep well at night. When I even think harsh, unkind words, the still point within me gets restless with a churn in my stomach and a weight on my heart. Words matter. Our tongues can wound. Do no harm.

  • Kevin

    Clarity, Succinctness and meaning are enhanced when I use words with intention.

    I love sitting with each day’s Daily Question, feeling my way through each word that comprises a sentence. Some days my response rolls out complete in a flash. Other days, words sing in my heart until my head pushes them out through my keyboard and onto this site. Words matter, and words have consequences. I am grateful for a day that ends without regret for the words I own and have sent.

    Hopefully the receiver is actively listening – there are so many distractions one never knows. TGIF everyone:)

  • Christine

    Then my words arrive. I hope that I never use harsh words with intention.
