Words are Wind
If words are meaningless, then why build barricades to protect yourself from them? Words carry weight. You decide when to put up the barrier and when to put it aside.If words are meaningless, then why build barricades to protect yourself from them? Words carry weight. You decide when to put up the barrier and when to put it aside. If we compare words to wind, they do bring intensity. Wind is categorized by their speed. It can be calm, a gentle breeze, gale storm, and hurricane. It affects the weather. It can be windy or wind with heavy rains. In the same way words can be classified by their intensity and can even be more intensified by the context and how they are said.The simplest of word can affect a person both positively and negatively. If words are meaningless, then why do people say nice things to one another? Why do congratulate others when they make an achievement or try to uplift someone when they are down? Then is it say not to speak at all. I have been told many times, “If you do not have nothing good to say, then don’t say anything at all.” What could this mean if words are wind, meaningless? If words are meaningless, then why are kidsaffected by bullying? They either go in a state of depression or commit suicide. Words do hurt and they do bring joy. A simple, “I love you” can bring joy or disdain. It depends on who is saying and who is on the receiving end. Words are not wind, but words affect a person depending on that individual’s temperament. Overtime, you have learned different strategies to manoeuvre the oncoming wind. You walk away, simply ignore the wind or you can harness the wind into something magnificent like electricity. When a hurricane or a storm is on your path, you build barricades to brace the wind and whatever debris it may take with it. You make sure your roofs are stable so they are not lifted off. That’s when we put up the barrier making sure, we are not hurt. Just like the wind, we make preparations for what people might say. Overtime you allow what to pass through your barrier because you are prepared mentally. You have to train your mind to avert or permit what will affect you. You do not know what people will say, so you are always prepared. You control how much the wind will affect you because you cannot control people. You are dependent on your actions because that will protect you from the wind. Use the wind to your advantage; do not let it break you down.
