“Pass the Good and Best Word Around”

Jan 26th “Pass the Good and Best Word Around”

What is the GOOD WORD for today?

Some days – when listening to the conversation of the people around me – I have to start wondering – “are they listening to their-selves?” “Is what they are saying – just to get someone to react – and give them a word or two – of some other way to express their selves – and – maybe just take the conversation – somewhere else?”

If my Mother were alive… she would let you know, “under no circumstances … do I want to hear that kind of language!”

My Mother knew her words, and there was not a word that she could not spell and when she would take dictation, she could take the entire conversation down in shorthand and then type the whole conversation from her notes and since she worked for the government, there was not a mistake anywhere! Letter perfect – and without mistakes.

Just listening to a program the other day about WORDS and that there were ten (10) words that are used more often than all the rest of our WORDS.

“Once upon a time” … these are the first four of those ten words… is the beginning of almost all of the stories that we hear. In fact, as I remember when as a small child… almost every story that, I would start to tell… would start with the “Once upon a time!”

Still, today it is so easy to start to tell a story with those four words… and or most any little interesting item of idle conservation… you will start with the… “Once upon a time” just to get some thoughts together to start the mouth talking in some fashion of saying something and letting your listeners know … that, this is going to be a terrific story!

“I LOVE YOU!” Those are the next three (3) words. Since February 14^th is just around the corner, “I LOVE YOU” will be communicated at least a million times or more??

Everyone knows that if you can say… “I LOVE YOU” … no matter what you did… either right or wrong… you are forgiven, and you are now the best thing, since sliced bread!

“I’m SORRY!”

These two words will clear your slate, once and for all causes… no matter what … you are accused of doing, so that now you will be waited on just as if you are the “KING of Hears!”

The only problem with most of us HUMANS is that we just do not know up front… the miraculous power for the words… “I’m SORRY!”

If and when there comes a situation that starts to brew into something that – will soon start maybe a “WWIII” … “I’m SORRY”… will splash water on that fire so fast, and the best of things will soon follow.

“I” – this is that last “one” extra special word… and making up… all of those ” ten most used words…”

Just to finish… will have to add more to that lonely “I” … just standing there all alone.

There is something important about the “I” standing there, and all alone… there is something in “LIFE…” that will fix everything for everyone …did you guess what it is?

The only and best way to use the big…“I” … is to say “I LOVE YOU!” …

And today… you will hear everyone saying… “I LOVE IT!”

“And – the fact is that – I do LOVE you!” D.V.
