Someone once said, "For every hurtful word that we said that hurt someone, to make the person come out of the hurt is to say back 7 words that is nice."

And today, as I ended off my last day of OT, many things had happened. Nurses were very nice and I met very nice doctor too, but there were moments when situations arised and the students would be the one got it, including me and if I said I was not hurt by it, I would be lying for afterall, I am someone who is quite sensitive.

Everyone got their sentimental part, we are all human and if we are not sensitive, then we would be a real human.

And many of the times, I was so tempting to say a hurtful word but I stopped myself as I always told myself that not God would want me to do. And sometime, I will say the wrong words and got said by people who in a way argued over it and even if I only said a word, they will say many other more in hope of hurting me.

And I always said that it's okay, but I realised that I am not and I always argued with God about how come others do this and that and I can't even if they are in a way close to me yet God said a simple word, to do what is right in His eyes.

If anyone ever ask, had I ever being complaining? Being harsh with my words? Being cruel with my words? Being cutting with my words?

The answer is yes.

Many many times, even till now...

I complained when situations got harder.

I complained when people treated me unfairly.

I complained and complained and never tried to be understanding.

Yet today, as the instructor shared of her hard times when she was newly out into the workforce, the life wasn't easy.

She was bullied left, right, center being a freshly graduated diploma holder, and being a small sized lady who was soft-spoken, she was the easy target for people to vent their anger on and she shared of how frustrated she was and how much she learnt to control herself and stop being overly sensitive over every tiny issues.

And one thing that hitted my heart was forget all unhappy the day before and start you next day with a brand new start.

It was a enlightenment and I slowly see things in a different light and I realised, sometime, it is not others who make your life miserable, but it is you yourself.

And I smiled with a relief that life can be easier if we learn to say nice words to one another, encourage one another, smile at one another, no matter how tough our life may seem.

Appreciate everyone in your life.

Understand one another.

Love one another.

Never be selfish with words but be open to encourage.

And life will really seem so much better! =]
