My Skirmish with Monosyllabic Words

MAKING IT YOUR BITCH And taking care of it 

THERE IS FORCE WHEN YOU use a word. Some men do not have that kind of thing when it comes to it, but when they do, they would see how big, how deep, and how great a word is. And as that word hits them, they would soon feel its soul, as if it has that hold on them.

Do not treat a word like some joke, though you can use it for fun, but when you do, wield it as if it is a gun to your prey. That is how sure a word can be, how straight. If you do not have that thing yet, make it an act to keep a word a day, and in that way, you will soon see its use, its sense. 

So the next time you have that word, keep it, hug it, live through it, taste it, grab it by the neck, do not let go of it. Make it your bitch.

A word is not just a word at all; it has a world of its own. So there is so much to know, so much to live for when we talk of words. We use it to make our loved ones feel safe, so that when they sleep at night, they will think of your words as stars, and they will dream of it. We use it to ask when we are in doubt, when we are deep in thought and when we are not sure of it.

A lot can be said of a word, not just a mere thing on top of that note. Do not cross that street if you have not read the sign, do not say things when you are mad, do not use it to hurt your friend or your mom, and do not keep a bad word in your mind or heart. It gives so much; it takes a lot, too.

It lends a smile, it barks a rule, it sheds a tear, and it maims a soul, its force is so great that all you need to do is give it a hand to make it an act. But it starts with a word, and from there, great things. Men go for wars out of it. They have fought, tooth and nail, all for that word, that peace that knows no bounds. And for that, you have to take care of it, it means so much to some that they would die for it.

The hope that a word brings and the love it leaves. That is how huge a word is in this vast realm we call life, where is no end to it. So keep that word well, and it will keep you well and good in the end.
