Sticks & Stones

Sticks and stone may break my bones but words will never hurt me, except they will cut deeper; harder and last longer than any broken bone will
Bullying in the verbal is no less traumatic than the physical violence tolled on the person only the scars may not show until many years later

Words Of A Bully

Things are not always what they seem, and were people act out of character or in exaggerated gestures, there is usually a reason.

Speak when spoken to was the words used by my parents when in company of me as a child; which did 2 things;
1) Touch me the value of listening and hearing
2) Knowing that not everything that is spoken is key to a conversation

So I ask you to ponder do you speak too much and listen less; or hear all and speak only when necessary to do so
