The heart,
Both the physical and emotional,
Is a very Fragile thing.
One casual word, innocently spoken,
But mistakenly understood,
Can open deep and
Enduring wounds in our emotional hearts,
Yet
Forgiveness goes a long way in repairing that
Damage.
Not so the physical heart, it is not
So easily repaired.
This is why it is so very
Important to guard your words, and also
Your health.
What you eat, including
What ideas you take in, can be greatly
Helpful, or harmful.
As for me, I trust
That little voice inside that speaks
To me where no one else hears.
I ‘know’ when I shouldn’t do,
Say, eat or take something.
It is up to me to listen, do
The right thing… or not.
