20. If we could only learn to use foolish words to fight wars, we'd save
ourselves alot of pain.

When someone tells me to f off, it rolls right off. (maybe because i've become immune)
Curse words mean very little to me- REAL curses are the words that are intended to cut to the quick- to wound the soul. Demean the 'guts' of who we are.
I've been hurt FAR more by being told i "was the worst thing that ever happend to" my mother, than all the "littl b--h, stupid worthless peice of s--t" and so many others i won't bother repeating ...

Curse words are really pretty benign and lame. They are demonstrations of frustration. Just don't call me a bitch and think you are dis ing me.

Cause i consider female dogs to be among the most wonderful of people.

Words DO matter, and have power- most of them are not curses (in my opinion)
