The Power of Words

The words that we use in our daily life have such an impact on people. Each person that we encounter we can build up or tear down with our words.
We can, with our words, ruin someones life, starting rumors, telling lies.
Listening to our words is so important for each of us. Not one of us on our own can be perfect in all the things that we say, the first step is recognizing that we need to change.
I have had two such experiences, in the last week, of language that was very damaging to the people that were being spoken of. There were no names used in the conversation. There was not even enough respect for that. The people were referred to as, it, her, and them.
I will advocate for "People First Language" in speaking. I have been called to task on people first language as being more about being politically correct than people friendly.
Lets get past the politics and be peoplitical correct.
When will we all just be people?
