Yesterday I bit my tongue and WOW did it hurt. Now before I get too far into this I'm not comparing this to snapping your ACL or anything but two days later every word I say really hurts. I mean it hurts to swallow!
Got me thinking (I don't do that often) about what I say and now that it hurts to talk I'm much more intentional about what I say. Maybe it's a blessing in disguise. Too often we don't think enough about what we are going to say and just blurt something out.
I guess my application is - learn to think before you speak. We've all heard that before and we all know it but I've been chewing food for a lot of years and still bit my tongue.
