MY LIFE SUPPORT
Words may fail to do justice to how amazing you have been to me. Often I have heard and seen when people are placed on Life support machines to take hold and bring back the life they once lived. In my case, you gave your life in the quest for my future and well-being. You were no MACHINE.

Words have the energy, power, and also ability to help, heal, hurt, and harm. Many times, we don't pay attention to our words, we tend to use them nonchalantly forgetting how powerful it is, many have been put into shackles by the power of either their words or that of other people.
