Spoken words are just one way we communicate with others. Our thoughts are the words we say to ourselves.

When we want to complain or be negative we can get our point across with a critical look, or an exhausted sigh, a cold shoulder or even an intentional retreat.

If you find that you are using words that hurt, either yourself or someone else, stop and check your thinking. Make it…

“Right Thought”
“Right Speech”
“Right Action”

I was in a restaurant about six months ago and a saying on the wall caught my eye. I had never heard the advice stated so simply and I actually wrote the quote down on a napkin and tucked it inside a book.

I had forgotten about the quote until the tiny piece of napkin fell out just the other day.

Loving yourself starts with not only how you see yourself but what you say to yourself on the inside. When you begin to love yourself unconditionally, you will find that it is so much easier to be kind to others.

The quote on the wall in the restaurant:

“Keep your words sweet, you just might have to eat them.”

Smiles, gena
