Words Matter

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 4 Comments/ 122

Words matter, don’t they? Sometimes I don’t really think about the impact that my words may have on others but words have the ability to either build up or tear down and I would much rather be a builder upper than a tearer downer. I Continue reading →

The Good Girl
