Words and Footprints are very similar.
So watch what you say.
What kind of imprints are you leaving on other’s minds?
Are you inspiring, or destructive?
Do others look back on conversations with you and smile?
Or are they still trying to forget?
I hope my conversation is preserving, and encouraging,
Even when it has to be firm and strong.
Sometimes your opinion is more right than someone else’s
But at the end of the day, it’s still just an opinion
So it doesn’t matter
Gossip is like walking through somebody’s house when you have muddy shoes on.
You leave stains and dirt everywhere you go.
No matter how much that person tries to clean their floor,
There will always be a remnant of where you stepped.
There may even be a place that they completely miss.
They might not see it, but you know it’s there.
Others that come by may see it too.
So wipe your feet before you go into someone’s home… or life.
Proverbs says A talebearer revealeth secrets:
but he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth the
matter.
Which title do we possess?
We can be gentle in the way that we approach others
Even when our paths cross in the most inopportune of ways
There’s no need to stomp all over someone else
Words and footprints are very similar
They leave marks everywhere you go
