As someone who loves writing, I cannot help but emphasize on the value of words. What we say, how we say, can make or break our lives. Published works, in particular, have the power to initiate radical changes in societies. Numerous examples in history have proved that the pen is mightier than the sword. In India, newspapers contributed a great deal to the attainment of freedom. Words can be poison or antidote, sugar sweet or sharp as a sword. A sword will kill you, but words can turn your life into a living hell. The sentence "I love you" makes want to jump, whereas "I hate you" from a dear one could make you crawl into a hole you might never come out from. Both sentences are just combinations of three words, but the "love and "hate" makes all the difference in the world.
Written words can transport people to places they've never been, or places which don't exist. I am partial to fantasy, and think that being able to create an imaginary world and make people believe in it is not easy, but not impossible either. In books such as the Alchemist, Paulo Coelho describes the journey through the desert. Even while narrating a story orally, your words have the ability to make people feel as if they are characters in the story. Of course, it all depends on your story telling skills.
Choose your words wisely. Your words can someone make someone feel good, so don't loose opportunities to brighten someones day. When it comes to kids, their minds are like wet cement. So, be careful before using abusive language in the presence of kids!
No one's words are worthless. Each one of us has the power to change the world through our words.
