More on how we should talk…words…what we say…

Don't jump to conclusions--there may be a perfectly good explanation for what you just saw. In the heat of an argument, don't betray confidences; word is sure to get around, and no one will trust you. The right word at the right time is like a custom-made piece of jewelry, and a wise friend's timely reprimand is like a gold ring slipped on your finger. Reliable friends who do what they say are like cool drinks in sweltering heat--refreshing! Like billowing clouds that bring no rain is the person who talks big but never produces. Patient persistence pierces through indifference; gentle speech breaks down rigid defenses.
(Proverbs 25:8-15)
Use your heads as you live and work among outsiders. Don't miss a trick. Make the most of every opportunity. Be gracious in your speech. The goal is to bring out the best in others in a conversation, not put them down, not cut them out.

(Colossians 4:5-6)
I hope you all are planning to come tonight! It is going to be CRAZY fun!
I love you!
C’iao!
