What’s in a Word?
a
seed
mined from
a
thought
planted on
a
page
dispersed with
a
breath
a
jewel with
many
facets
pregnant with
personality
filled with
power
and rich
with
a million
possibilities

“Filled with power” to encourage, discourage, cause fear, cause joy, and a billion other things.
Sandra says
The count climbs.
Words that build up. Words that tear down.
Words of life. Words of death.
Thanks, Matt.

Monica Sharman says
Love that kind of “pregnant”! Pregnant is one of my favorite words. It gives such excitement over future possibility and also the growth of the present.
Sandra says
I’m thinking that word also might evoke a sense of fear. 🙂
Thanks for stopping in, Monica.
