52 Little Lines with Big Benefits
The weight of our words carry the very power of life and death in their grasp. We have the ability to make or break the little lives that have been entrusted to us. But sadly, and too often, hurtful, thoughtless, harsh words tumble from my lips. And sure enough, it is my precious children who see and hear the worst… Read More
