Think back over the past ten years, and you can no doubt remember when someone said words that deeply wounded you. It wouldn't take you very long, either to think of words that greatly lifted you. Words have the power to tear down or build up. And they leave an impression. Knowing the power of words, what would happen if we committed to choosing and using positive words that lifted and brought out the best in one another? How might it feel, knowing that a decade from now, someone's life was altered because of the kind and supportive words you offered? What gift of words might you bestow on someone today?
