Words are like food to me. They sustain me. Kind words. Encouragement. Someone just taking the time to talk. It's nourishing to my soul.
And when I am filled up, it's great...because it's non-fattening.;) The thing is that sometimes words are hurtful. And they are like poison to me. They eat away at my soul.
So, I have to learn how to spit out the bad. Not ingest it. Label them with a skull and crossbones. Put them in a brown bottle and put them out of sight.
But, sometimes, I am like a child, just drinking in whatever I see (or hear). And it causes problems. Because words are so important to me.
But I am learning. Watching my diet. Watching where I go to "eat". Being wiser. Keeping me safe. Giving myself the best chance to thrive. To heal. To grow strong.
blessings.
