In my 70+ years I have spoken, learned and listened to many, many words. I have never researched how many words you use in one day but I have been thinking some words I don't need any more. Take "jump".......I have taken that out of my vocabulary. Run and hop are seldom used. I couldn't jump if you paid me to, my poor knees would rebel.
Then there is this word forever? F O R E V E R......forever. You can't live forever, your clothes don't last forever. Your car, furniture and health don't last forever. When you get married you promise each other in front of God and sign the marriage certificate indicating you are promising to keep your vows forever. As far as I am concerned forever is a joke. Parents die, Pets die, friends die, heath changes and jobs end, seasons come and go. You aren't young forever, you grow up. You aren't old forever, you die. I can't think of one thing that is forever. So I have this question........If nothing lasts forever, then what is forever for? That is another word that I can drop from my vocabulary!However, there are a few words I find myself using more lately. Wrinkles, aches, pain.....slow!
Each chapter that is ending---- Leads us to a new beginning.
A past we are leaving-----means a future we are starting. I try to always move forward.........
