If we understood the awesome power of our words, we would prefer silence to almost anything negative. ~ Betty Eadie
How often do we speak without first thinking? Probably often. We don’t consider the power of our words, or how deeply they can hurt, how deeply they can heal.

We sometimes observe in humans what you call “idle chatter”—words without real meaning or effects.
