Hughnon sighed. "Words are too important to be left to machinery. We've got nothing against engraving, you know that. We've nothing against words being nailed down properly. But words that can be taken apart and used to make other words...well, that's downright dangerous. And I thought you weren't in favor, either?"
"Broadly, yes," said the Patrician. "But many years of ruling this city, Your Reverence, have taught me that you cannot apply brakes to a volcano. Sometimes it is best to let these things run their course. They generally die down again after a while."
"You have not always taken such a relaxed approach, Havelock," said Hughnon.
The Patrician gave him a cool stare that went on for a couple of seconds beyond the comfort barrier.
"Flexibility and understanding have always been my watchwords," he said.
"My god, have they?"
"Indeed."

Good article 👆 to educate yourself with.
Trump's words were important every time he spoke, I didn't take notes like this guy but I do remember trying to figure out what he was saying and I got a lot right. It was like he spoke in coded messages. 🤔

Words are spells
Words are spells, they hold such power
They can build us up, or make us cower
In their hand lies the choice to heal or hurt
With every word, we can mend or exert
They are like wands, in the hands of a magician
Creating a world, with each careful incantation
They have the power to shape our reality
So choose them wisely, with utmost sensitivity
For words can heal wounds, soothe a broken heart
They can inspire and give a fresh start
They can bring hope to those lost in despair
And show them a path, to rise from their lair
But words also have the power to harm
To spread hatred and incite alarm
With just a few syllables, they can ignite a fire
That burns through love, and all that we desire
So let us use our words to spread love and light
To uplift others and bring back their sight
For the power of words is a gift we've been given
A responsibility to use them for good, and not forbidden
In this world filled with chaos and strife
Let our words be agents of hope and life
For they hold the key to a better tomorrow
Let us wield them wisely, and banish all sorrow
So let us remember, before we speak
The power of words, in every language unique
They shape our thoughts, and our actions too
And in the end, they define me and you.

The beauty of the written word is that you don't see it on the surface. To the illiterate eye, it's just lines on paper. But just like with a beautiful soul, you have to dive into its world to unravel its full magnificence. ✨

It is no longer appropriate for me to retell limiting stories.
Let the past be done. Let me teach abundance, love, and success with my every word. I've learned from the lessons of the past there is no need for me to retell and reinfect myself with limiting stories that arose from limiting beliefs.

Some people like to settle down with a good book. No-one in possession of a complete set of marbles would like to settle down with a book of magic, because even the individual words have a private and vindictive life of their own and reading them, in short, is a kind of mental Indian wrestling. Many a young wizard has tried to read a grimoire that is too strong for him, and people who've heard the screams have found only his pointy shoes with the classic wisp of smoke coming out of them and a book which is, perhaps, just a little fatter. Things can happen to browsers in magical libraries that make having your face pulled off by tentacled monstrosities from the Dungeon Dimensions seem a mere light massage by comparison.
Terry Pratchett, Mort

Reasons to Stay Alive
Dear Person,
I want you to know that you are valued, cherished, and loved. Life may seem overwhelming at times, but there are countless reasons to keep going, to keep fighting, and to keep living. I've compiled a list of reasons, big and small, to remind you of the beauty and wonder that surrounds us each day.
We Would Miss You: Your presence in this world matters. Your absence would leave a void in the lives of those who care about you.
Regret is Not Worth It: No matter how difficult life may seem, the regret of giving up is far greater than the challenges you face. Your resilience will inspire others.
It Gets Better: Even in the darkest of moments, there is hope for a brighter tomorrow. Storms eventually pass, and rainbows appear.
Don't Miss Out: Life is full of experiences waiting to be had. From small joys to monumental milestones, there's so much you would miss out on.
There's Always a Reason: Even when it's hard to see, there is always a reason to keep going. Your journey is unique, and your purpose is waiting to be discovered.
You Are Cared For: You are not alone. People care about you deeply, and your well-being matters to them.
You Are Worth It: You are inherently valuable and deserving of love and happiness. Don't let anyone, including yourself, convince you otherwise.
You Are Amazing: Embrace your strengths, your quirks, and your uniqueness. You are capable of achieving incredible things.
Emerging Stronger: Tough times may test your resilience, but they also provide opportunities for growth. You will emerge from challenges stronger and more resilient than ever before.
Unfulfilled Dreams: Think of all the dreams and goals you've yet to accomplish. Your potential is limitless, and your future holds endless possibilities.
Love: Even if it's from just one person, love is a powerful reason to stay. You are worthy of love and capable of giving and receiving it.
Music: Imagine a world without the melodies that move your soul. Your presence adds harmony to the symphony of life.
Impact on Others: Your actions have a ripple effect on those around you. Ending your life would cause immeasurable pain to those who care about you.
Missed Opportunities: You'll miss out on future experiences, from the mundane to the extraordinary.
Future Generations: Your existence shapes the future, including the possibility of having a family of your own.
Family's Feelings: Consider the impact your absence would have on your family. Your life is intertwined with theirs in profound ways.
You Are Perfect: To someone out there, you are perfect just as you are. Your imperfections make you uniquely beautiful.
Favorite Things: Think of all the little pleasures in life, from favorite foods to cherished activities. These simple joys are worth living for.
Unique Experiences: Life is full of unique experiences waiting to be had, from traveling the world to meeting new people.
Laughter and Joy: The world is full of laughter, joy, and moments of pure happiness. These moments are worth living for.
Hope for the Future: Your survival holds the potential to make the world a better place, even in small ways.
Inspiration for Others: Your journey can inspire others to persevere through their own struggles.
Soulmates and Connections: You have yet to meet the people who will profoundly impact your life and bring you joy.
Purpose: Your life has purpose, and it's up to you to discover it. Each day is an opportunity to uncover your passions and fulfill your potential.
Changed Lives: You've already made a difference in someone's life. Your presence has touched others in meaningful ways.
Potential to Change the World: Your actions have the power to change the world for the better.
Every Day is a Gift: No matter how challenging life may be, each day is a precious gift to be treasured.
Talent and Potential: You possess unique talents and abilities that have yet to be fully realized.
Embracing Imperfection: Happiness comes from embracing life's imperfections and finding beauty in the journey.
Be Your Own Hero: You have the power to overcome obstacles and become the hero of your own story.
Remember, dear person, you are not alone in this journey. There is hope, there is love, and there is a future waiting to be discovered. Keep fighting, keep believing, and keep living. You are worthy of every happiness this life has to offer.
