" We should be as careful of our words as of our actions. "
- Marcus Tullius Cicero
The tongue cuts deeper than the sword. And we all would agree that It is important to control what we say, but it all evaporates as soon as our emotions get better of us. Physical hurt heals with time but the emotional one is free of any timeline. Everytime it comes to mind, the wound is as good as new. And oh it's important to mark that these timeless wounds are given by and to our closest people. If given a chance we'd all have our share of things that we would want to change. Why not change it before it comes out of our mouth. Anger hurts you, but you can choose to keep that hurt to yourself or pass it on to others. Our tongue could be our savior or it could savour us. Nevertheless, no matter how strong our enemy is, it's we who gets to choose whether or not to give it the weapons.
