                Words can get you far in life, but also words can hurt you. Words have failed me sometimes when I get angry at my parents or siblings and it could be something I said out of anger but really didn’t mean to them. Or when you get mad at your friends or your girlfriend. You could say something that could cost you friendships and relationships or anything else important to you. One time it failed me is when I was talking to a girl and I said the wrong thing and she blew me off and wasn’t interested. One time words made me proud was when my high school coach told me we weren’t running that day after we had worked out. Also another time words made me happy is going to college and being happy about going. A time where I have used words to benefit someone else was when my teammates were struggling in the weight room or on the field and I used words of encouragement to help them get through it and do they best thing they can do. Words that have inspired me is Muhammed Ali when he said “Don’t quit suffer now and live the rest of your life like a champion”. That always put a good motivation in my head because it makes me never want to quit. It always makes me do my best at whatever I want to do. Its even my background on my phone. Artists that had blew my mind about the words they have said is Kanye west. He said no matter how much money you have or how wealthy you are you are blessed being alive. Also another person that said something that means so deep is Leonardo DiCaprio. He said something about how global warming is effecting the world but no one is paying attention to it. He also said its happening right now and it is the most urgent threat that is effecting our species and that we need to work together and stop procrastinating and do something about it. I believe that he was sending a message to us that no one is paying attention to and listening what we need to do before its too late. Words have many different meanings and there is not just one meaning of something there is multiple meaning that a word can have to something.
