Every Word

You do not know the effects of your words.

Each phrase is like a pebble thrown into a pond.
Some miss and lie forgotten among the marshy reeds.
Some land in the middle of a mountain of other similar pebbles.
But sometimes, it arcs through the air and lands in the very center of the water.
And ripples spread out. Waves and waves crash against the edges and everything is disturbed.

You said it so easily. I took it to heart and mused upon it, thought about it, slept on it.

Maybe I think too much.
