Taming the tongue

It's hard to keep our mouths in check. I know. I've said more than my share of poorly thought-out stuff, it seems. It really is amazing how quickly we can go from hero to zero with just a few careless words. We all know that little old phrase "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me." We also know that it's now true. Words can hurt, and how we speak says a lot about how we think. So, we need to be diligent to control our words, and use them to build others up, and never to tear down.
