Shooting From Lip...It's a deadly game. FOOT IN MOUTH DEPARTMENT
By Oscar Bruce
In Northern Canada there are two seasons, winter and July. When back roads thaw in July they get muddy. Trucks traveling back roads leave deep ruts that become frozen when winter returns. When you enter backwoods you are greeted by a sign that says, "Drivers, please choose carefully which ruts you drive in, because you'll be in it for next twenty miles."
Mark Twain gives us following advice. "The secret to good conversation is leaving out wrong words."
The same thing can be said about your own conversations. Choose your words carefully; you may have to live with disastrous consequences for next twenty years. I've seen many friendships, and business opportunities sabotaged because someone pulled trigger before they assessed consequences. Words, once spoken, can never be recalled.
