From the first African American Supreme Court Justice - Thurgood Marshall
"Certain people have a way of saying things that shake us at the core. Even when the words do not seem harsh or offensive, the impact is shattering. What we could be experiencing is the intent behind the words. When we intend to do good, we do. When we intend to do harm, it happens. What each of us must come to realize is that our intent always comes through. We cannot sugarcoat the feelings in our heart of hearts. The emotion is the energy that motivates. We cannot ignore what we really want to create. We should be honest and do it the way we feel it. What we owe to ourselves and everyone around is to examine the reasons of our true intent."
It is worth it to examine the true intentions behind of all your actions. Because no matter how hard you try to hide it - what you feel in your heart will come through in what you do. Actions speak louder than any words. But the truth in the heart is even louder than that. We must recognize that people will hear the message of our heart in what we do no matter how we say it.
Have an honorable day!
