Words…
I was watching the movie ‘Message in a bottle’ a few hours ago. Okay! So I must admit it was rather unrealistic and sad… and to an extent kind of corny but I am a strong believer that no matter how silly something seems on the surface, there is always something you can learn from it.
The movie was about three letters which were found in bottles. These bottles had floated across and appeared on the sea shore. Those reading the letters were touched by what was written in them.
So, my thoughts were… that words are powerful. They can mean so much. Something said can change your life forever and at the same time something not said, can do the same.
There are moments in life when you wonder why something happens. You also wonder what you can do to enhance that moment you have. But then, that moment goes away. And once it is gone… it is gone forever.
So here in comes the dilemma… do you take a chance and express what you feel??? Or do you play it safe and just leave it the way it is… so that you know your comfort zone will not be affected?
Going back to the movie, it was a sad ending simply because, of what was not said… the words were not said at the right moment… and thus… the love which could have been, was lost…
There is always regret… and that regret can cause a deep wound. There is a great chance as a result, that the wound will never heal.
So then, do you use the power of words to take that chance… for words have the power to heal, to hate, to love to say hello and goodbye…
