This morning I was contemplating on how social media has become a way of recording our speech that has never really been possible in the past, thus allowing unprecedented access to a person’s inner thought life.
Reading someone’s posts can give us a fairly clear indication of what’s in their heart, “for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.”
If the speech sounds angry, then they have anger in their heart, if the speech sounds intolerant, then they are intolerant in their heart, if the speech sounds hateful or spiteful, then they are hateful or spiteful in their heart.
What does your social media presence reveal about what’s in your heart?
Here’s a tip if you want to be more positive: before you post anything, think of at least one thing you are grateful for – it’s impossible to be hateful when you’re grateful.
