Words are so powerful, we have to make a conscious choice for them not to affect us.
"Sticks and stones will break my bones, but words will never hurt me."
We use this rhyme to teach our children how to survive words.

I, like most I would assume, like to think that I am immune to the consequences of words. Yet no matter how thick my skin I cannot account for the effects that words have on others often times inciting them to action.
So, "How powerful are words?" you ask. I would submit that they are infinately powerful.

Words spoken with meaning and heart can have a profound affect on others. Words have the power to make or break someones mood, heart and even life itself.

No Pedro, its a choice whether to let words break our hearts, or not.
Its just a choice that is difficult to make sometimes.

I've seen words so powerful towards a CS member that the member deleted their account and left CS.
And I've seen where the mods had to put somebody in jail because words were so powerful.
People need to think before "putting pen to paper" or "fingers to the keyboard":
"Say it and forget it
Write it and regret it"

This is true...words can cause a lot of grief whether written or spoken.

In response to: i mean when you say words that have meaning and heart in it,, how powerful are they..?
The pen is mightier than the sword...............written in 1839......that´s a long time ago and still stands true now.
Brace yourself to withstand the onslaught.........gotta decipher whether or not the writer means what they say. There can be hidden meaning behind words.
We can also quote.......sticks and stones will break my bones but names will never hurt me. Many times words are just malicious.
Look for the motives behind the words.

Well Jac I mentioned earlier something about the thickness of one's skin and was referring to myself. I consider myself to be pretty tough when it comes to the whole sticks n stones....but words will never hurt me thing and have tried to live up to that. But the day that I drove away from my exwife and children and my oldest son who was 7 at the time not knowing the true situation only that his father was leaving jumped onto the hood of my car pounding his fists against my windshield screaming "I hate you...I will always hate you if you leave...I hate you!!!"
Even though i knew those words were coming from a confused, hurt child, they cut so deeply into my heart that it put my into a downward spiral that finally bottomed out in a very dark place. I knew they were only words...but still....
