Eliminating Evil Speech & Verbal Abuse

If during a conversation, someone’s skin becomes flushed or pale, you may have hurt them.

Don’t assume you know the reason why someone said what they did. All you really know is that they did or said something. You do not know why until you ask. Everyone deserves the benefit of the doubt.

…except for the person who is the butt of it or has had the same experience.

Your words have the power to hurt 3 people: you, the person you are talking to and the person you are talking about. Speaking badly about someone, even if you include yourself, still hurts.

… your tone of voice, your facial expressions, and your body language, as well as the words, you speak, write, tweet, sign, etc.

…about a group or a community hurts many people.

…repeat Evil Speech to ANYONE.

…listen to Evil Speech. Even if it is public knowledge, it is still wrong.

…what you’ve been told about them may simply make things worse and put you in the middle where you become the bad guy.

…to warn someonewho is about to Make a BIG mistake, to save them froma bad relationship, a disastrous business deal, etc.
