Don't let what you say to people hurt them (Physically, Socially, Emotionally, Spiritually or Psychologically) driving them into drug abuse and other mental health problems. Let your words always be gracious and friendly to people, such that it launches them into wellness.
Senegalese player, Krepin Diatta, lashed out at people, especially Africans who mocked his physical look during the past African cup. This is what he had to say on social media:
"I am very sad to see some African brothers making fun of me. I work for our beautiful and dear African continent and what I receive in return are only insults, mockery from my brothers. This is too bad of you and reason comes from there. I need your encouragement and not your insults. Thank you to everyone who support me, only God makes my strength and I am proud of my physical person. Your mockery won't change anything in my life. But one thing is for sure, we are all African".
My message to you all....
If your words cannot improve someone's mental health, they should, at least, not make it worst.
One of the most important thing in life is that our word mean a lot to people a word have a lot of different meaning in what can kill and a world can save we should always learn not to allow our world to add people but make it a word of encouragement
The issues that some people doesn't know how powerful the world is our watch always be a word of encouragement to others because when we said a word that hurt people it goes a long way in their heart and some may not even have the heart of forgiveness
We should always be mindful of every word that come out from our from us because word can never be reversed an that us why we really need to be think why we need to think any word before we saying it out.
This topic us a very educative one and I believe we have alot of person to learn from it,i'm really glad gland to see this your post and to be able to share my point on it
Thanks...I really appreciate your comment
Definitely is not good to be insulting, to extent that the life of such will become worse, and the person will affect negatively.
We should always let our word, change people life for good,do you know some will insulted his or her friend to extend the other person will commit sucide.
But in the other hand, if someone insulted one another and the second person allow the word to affect him or her negatively, am sorry to say the person him or her is not that serious.
That person is unserious because why can't you, have in mind to put such person shame, and surprised him or her that you know what you are doing.
Let come and embrace you by the mouth he or she use to insulted
Exactly...our words should always be gracious and friendly to people.
this is a fantatic word.
an adage say 'words are like eggs when they are spoken its like an egg is broken which may be difficult to amend again" that is why we need to be mindful of whatever we say so that it doesn't hurt people.
words spoken can make or mar people and it can be so powerful. we need to learn not to hurt people with whatever we say.
Thanks
In the spirit of what you are saying I agree. Yet this can be taken too far.
In the U.S. people can choose to be offended by almost anything. They can then make laws against offending people. People can be jailed, fined, lose their jobs, lose their banking, etc. Simply because someone was offended.
Considering people can choose to be offended by anything and it is a CHOICE this is a very dangerous thing to create laws and actions around.
I tell people when a bird flies over and defecates and it hits your shoulder you are likely momentarily offended. Then you move on. This is part of being mature.
While we shouldn't go out of our way to intentionally say things to hurt people, we shouldn't have to constantly be concerned with whether someone might become offended by something we say.
Determining intention requires mind reading. If I say something with no racist intent yet someone decides it was racist. That choice to assume it was racist happened in their head, not mine. Thus, I was not being racist. They chose to assume racism was my motive.
So again. I agree we should not say things to intentionally hurt people.
We just need to be VERY careful how far we take that.
Well said...Thanks for the comment
Permit me to start my contribution with the Statement above mate and want to believe that it is not too late to say one or two about this,it is a very bad one from the brotherhood side let me use that,cause no one should have abuse a man in thier own Color , doing this to a brother then it means it is of no use use fighting against racism at all,which to me in think we should all come together as one to clear anyform.of racism from human race.
One thing I understand well in life is that our words nare powerful and irespective of how bad someone might have been to us or the level of anger in us at times,we should be careful on how we use it,cause our words has weapon.
But of all we should also know we can't be good in everyone story,so irespective of what people are saying about us or whatever will share saying to others we must be very careful of it,cause at times words are hurtful alot and can leave a scar in people's life.
We should let our words to be very friendly just like you said also and motivating irrespective of what Nas transpired between us and another person,we should remember that a word spoken can't be taken back irrespective of the level of apology that we render after we might have learnt that we have over reacted.
We should learn how to make sure that words that comes out of our mouth are helpful and good towards encouraging each other to come out well in life irrespective of happenings at such moments.
