‘The axe forgets; the tree remembers.’ - African Proverb At some time or another we all fall victim to our ego – our fears and our insecurities. We allow them to speak for us, from a place inside of us that is not truly our own. As a result we can say things we do not mean or hurt those who we only want to love. So remember, the next time you feel as though you’re about to say something you may later come to regret, ask yourself – is this me or my fears talking? Do I really want to hurt this person, or am I just feeling hurt myself? Choose your words carefully. One person’s momentary slip may become scars on another person’s heart.
