Sometimes words ARE just words

Sometimes words ARE just words. Words that carry weight and meaning must be reinforced by deeds, actions historical measures, or events. Some are noble, some are humble, some are courageous, some are audacious, but all must have substance. They may be born of hardship, adversity, suffering, or just ideals that will better mankind. What they are NOT however is just an utterance, or regurgitation for the sake of personal advancement. If caution is not taken when listening to words, if they are accepted in a vacuum, or on blind faith, there could be dire consequences. So when you hear words, be ever so careful to use all your faculties when listening. Then, and only then, will you understand the true meaning of the speaker.
