A word eh?

Words have power.

A single word can inspire change, bring people together, and unite people under one cause.

Four powerful words were spoken by Martin Luther King Jr.:

"I have a Dream"

What did those four words do?

They gave black people equal rights.

Four words.

One big change.

Words can kill, though. Four little words.

You are completely worthless

You are a mistake

And the worst of all:

You shouldn't be alive.

These four words have literally killed people. They started something inside someone. And it wasn't good. People have committed sui-cide from the effects of these words.

So be kind.

After all, the pen is mightier than the sword.
