Topic: SLIP OF THE TONGUE (01/26/17)
When you are in a relationship, a lot of people are very careful to not say the wrong thing like, "The Coat that you are wearing is too baggy," or your that color of that top you are wearing does not suit you." Those are things that you want to avoid saying.

'

The kind of things that people should say in a relationship is that 'I like that coat are you are wearing or "I like those shoes that are wearing."



Sometimes people don't like to be called that they are handsome or that they are pretty. Sometimes finding the right words is a good thing. For instance, a boss might say to their employee that he or she is a good worker which is what usually employees like to say.



Some people like to hear encouraging words like "God loves you." Some people may not believe the God exists. Most like to hear that they are friendly or that they have a good personality.



Some people like hear positive feedback like they are a student or a good person to get along with. We should not say to a person like, "you don't fit in our group," or that we only invite certain types people to our party." We all need to hear positive words or results in our lives like Jesus gave us positive words in our lives to look forward to.

Yes, we all need words of affirmation.

Since you didn't use your allotted 750 words for this entry, you could have expanded this. I'd have liked to see an example of an actual circumstance where you received the words you needed--or perhaps a time when you needed kind words and did not receive them. This could be written as a conversation, and would be likely to drawn in the reader.

Thank you for encouraging us to use our words to build people up.

You have a very clear message and did a good job conveying your thoughts in an easy to understand style. I was a little confused by some of your punctuation and not sure what was dialogue and what was not. You can get help here on the site or on the internet as a refresher. Keep writing!

Words can brighten someone's day or they can darken it. That being said, I would like to brighten your day: keep practicing and your writing will get better and better! Blessings!

Many are raised, work, or are yoked in an environment of only negative hurtful words. Thanks for encouraging us to speak only good words. I would encourage you to read, read again, put down your submission to check for th ode minor errors that distract from your good thoughts. Polish, polish, polish. God bless.

That was an example. I read it again and still didn't catch what my tablet changed automatically.
