Thank you, Eboni. Many of us have not thought about where our cliches originated. Words matter, and if we could possibly change our violent society by using different language, let’s at least try!
Well said, Eboni! I am glad for this reminder to think about word choice before blurting the first thing that comes to mind. Thanks.
Great letter, Eboni! Thank you for the reminder. It’s really a mindfulness practice to notice our words before they come out of our mouths. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and life experience. Heard.
Brava!
Excellent reminder. Thank you for writing and for sharing your letter and thoughts with all of us.
