All Words Have Value!
Some Thoughts, Mumblings and Shouts on Words.
There are some days when words will come to me, very quietly, politely beckoning me to use them.
"Please use me, give me a chance to shine this time, I'll make you so proud"
Then there are other words that call to me at the top of their voices
"Use me and share my majesty with the world, you Fucker! Everyone deserves to bask in my greatness!"
Still, other words are slippery and sly.
"You don't need...to use me...but if you do...I'll make it worth your while!"
Then there are other words, perhaps the saddest of all
"It's okay if you don't use me today, I'm just glad some words got used"
All words have their value - the quiet and whispery ones you say in an undertone
The words you say with pomposity and sureness and just a little pizzazz.
The words you feel reluctant to say, but that make the biggest impact
All words have their value.
