Do you believe in the power of the "word"?

    I do most certaninly do,the saying "stick and stones may break your bones, but names will never hurt you." is so untrue.

    The bruises and wounds from physical battles heal and may even leave a scar on the surface.

    But the wounds from words, can go so deep that they may never ever truly heal.

    The power of words is so great that they can also give hope when all seems hopeless and soothe a tortured soul,words can lead someone out of the dark and into the light.

    Yes I do, words can be very sharp enough to kill and very soft enough to heal. But what the hell, it's words that are going to take us eventually either to hell or to heavens.

    Of course, without doubt. The power of the word is evident in God's creation. إذا أراد الله أمراً فإنه يقول له كن فيكون

    Can I have a word with u?

  • 1 decade ago

    ya, I believe in that,

    Words can kill , and can also give hope, or cheer u up or destroy something bad in u , or good, it depends on the one who is saying the Word and the one who is listening to it.

  • yeah

    some people can accept torture as a genus or hero and no one can beat him otherwise they can not accept to be harmed or insulated by words

    the pain of the words more hard than physical torture
