A lively debate of differing opinions and an exchange of ideas and beliefs can be intellectually stimulating and enlightening. But personal, mean spirited, attacks,regardless of the reason, can be hurtful and destructive. Words are very potent and they are charged with emotional explosives. In circumstances where a person's emotional well being is fragile, they can detonate and explode causing varying degrees of harm.All of us, if we are cut we will bleed,albeit, some skin is thicker than other's. Cutting words can make a vulnerable soul bleed, causing harm that we may never have considered or imagined. May we all consider one another's humanity as we interact. The world,desperately needs voices of civility in it's chaotic reality.
