As people, it’s important to be kind in our words.

Our mouths can be like a cutting axe and words, a sharp knife.

So, let’s be merciful with what we say. Bad words hurt hearts, but kind words warm them.

Speak with care and respect. Have fun, but remember moral integrity.

Getting along depends on sincerity, not just clever words. Actions speak louder, so do things well instead of just talking well.

Speak when necessary, and be silent when needed. Avoid talking without restraint, as it can hurt without us realizing it. Don’t spread rumors or make false claims.

Think before you speak, as misfortune can come from the mouth.

Be convincing and speak kindly. Leave room for words, allowing people to get closer. Be merciful by not discussing others’ rights and wrongs.

Guard your mouth and your heart. Don’t be rude or harsh. Sometimes it’s better to stay silent. Avoid unnecessary explanations; that’s magnanimity. Take responsibility without using bad words — it’s a matter of quality.

Words reveal your character, so be careful.

Don’t mistake being outspoken for being frank. Dirty jokes can make people look down on you. Be careful in your words and deeds, listen to good words, and keep secrets.

Don’t expose people’s scars or point at their pain points. Keep friends and gain confidence. Be virtuous, and, above all, be merciful.
