Words...


They shelter our thoughts like a turtle shelters itself in its shell. They give us means of freedom, expression yet also restrain. We continuously use them, cherish them, and abuse them. Their massive power changes them from being random combinations into becoming everlasting and even sometimes life changing. They are simple yet concise. Flawless yet can cause flaws. Useful yet misused. Valuable yet taken for granted.
Their essence is priceless yet we sell with them.  They are the base, a need, and an inevitable aspect of our everyday life.  They guide and misguide. They change and cause change. They express all yet fail to express a lot as well. We consume them, devour them, seek them, and stimulate our life with their existence.
If misused, they cannot be taken back. They hinder and they fix. They hide and they reveal. They lie and they say the truth.
They are our guidance, our compass, our overriding mean of delivery and acceptance. They are the composition of our thoughts. The communication of our feelings. They are our characters; our letters; they are our words.
