The Daily Word for February 23, 2021

 


uplifting - adjective - inspiring, enlivening, hopeful

I don't know just how many words in the English language can be considered to be uplifting.  And I don't know what the proportion of positive to negative words is either. But I do know that one can choose to use a disproportionate number of either as free will grants us that opportunity. Why is it that so many select a vocabulary of hurtful, harmful, harsh words instead of words that can inspire and enliven? I can't answer that. The words one uses does give the listener an idea of the individual's character, though, so one must be very careful if one wants to be judged accurately. 

Think before you speak. Admit butterflies, not flies from your soul via your verbiage. If you do, you stand a chance of changing your listeners lives for the better.
