Never Say Never or Always

 

“WITHHOLD those NEVER and ALWAYS words most of the time, and live in more of a gray world not black and white "my way or the highway" world with PEOPLE. It will help you with your inner peace tremendously.” – Gary Woltal

Texas real estate professional Gary Woltal reminds us that it so easy to close doors of opportunity or to corner ourselves with poorly selected words in our conversations.

Thanks for the blogging Roy.... with those words we do need to use them with thought or caution. Love this pinkish red flower photo you have included....

Roy- I love what both you and Gary said.  "Never" and "Always" are two words that can cause us to have our backs against the corner with no way out.

Roy, I agree almost.  I like saying, "I will love you always, or you are always so nice, or I appreciate of how you take care of us always."When in an argument those two words are killers.  A

Thank you very much for your comments. It is always good to hear from you.

We have a very nice day in Maryland and Dolores is on the golf course while I recover from this morning's root canal procedure.

Never and always, sort of loose words to being using, at times.  YES, words do mean something so be careful how and what you say!  Roy, I hope you get to feeling better after than root canal!  Let's face it, a bad day at golf, beats a good root canal procedure.... maybe!

Wise advice Roy and Gary, I remember when my wife and I started dating many years ago having a discussion about the use of the word always and how it bothered her, have not used it much since then
