This is my first post in mylot.
"words that are spoken cannot be taken back"- here goes the famous saying. sometimes we speak that something that does damage to us and at the same time it hurts others .
so when you speak something do you take care to think what you have to speak before doing it.
or your thoughts just flow out without any thinking. we should always remember that to speak the words is easy but to repair the damage is very difficult.
i hope that your responses will be thoughtful this time. thanks for you in advance.

Hi. Welcome to mylot sagar.
Thats indeed true that words once spoken cannot be taken back. So one should think before saying something, lest it might cause irreparable damage sometimes.
I try to concentrate on what i say. But then, to err is human. So there are times something undesired happens. Sometimes when i'm angry words come out before i choose them...But you dont be afraid. That happens when i'm angry and i think i dont get angry too often.

there goes the saying to err is human and to forgive is devine. to tell you something about this quote. this quote is attributed to alexander pope. he belonged to the catholic family but he was debarred from the school because of his religion (since the school was protestant).... he suffered a lot of diseases and was short in height. he wrote a lot of poems and the most notable thing is that he translated the Iliad.
and about the saying ... it is so apt for the human beings.
good to see that i got my first response. hope to get some more.

Thats quite a nice bit of information. I have never used the full quote...leave aside where its attributed to.
And yes, it sure feels very nice to get the first response. I myself had experienced the pleasure when i started in mylot three months ago.
Have a good day.

hello parthajena,
there are a lot of things to be done here in mylot and the most important thing is that i got 13 cents by just giving 10 minutes. it includes the time that i took to sign up for the site and all.
most of the time i surf the net and things like that .... but giving 10 minutes to this site gave me that much of money. this is wonderful. hope that i could post by pasting.
it is bad that they are not allowing the newcomers to paste.
hope to do that soon.

Yes, it's true that oftentimes we hurt other people because we are tackless, very frank, or maybe impulsive that we just burst out what we feel without second thought. But in case we did hurt other people because of the things we said, then we must be able to say sorry and explain to them why you said those things. But if we're angry and really intend to say bad words to our enemies to hurt them, then it's another story.

ya it is true that if we hurt someone then we should be eager to accept our fault and be sorry for that and also in addition to that we should take steps so that we do not repeat our mistake in the future.
sometimes words too do some miracles. they build relationships and also the break up some.
