Our inner world is shown to the outer world through our words. Our words reveal our thoughts and our thoughts reveal our emotions. This article will briefly discuss how spiritual growth is related to the words we use.

Spiritual growth is the process of moving closer to our ideal state. Our ideal state is having the ability to let our true nature shine through. And our true nature is that which was given to use by our creator.

To let our true nature shine through we need to remove the many filters that distort our projected inner beauty. What are these filters made up of? They are made up of our emotions and our thoughts. Both expressed through our words.

Why have I chosen to focus on the words that we use. I could easily have focused on thoughts or emotions. The reason I have chosen words is because they are the easiest to observe. And they are the easiest for others to observe and point out to us.

If someone says that you seem sad that is an interpretation that you could disagree with. But if they said that you said "I hate everybody" or "I love everybody" that is difficult to challenge. So words become our marker for growth. Change your words and you can change your life.

It is difficult to directly change your thoughts because thoughts are so fleeting. If you were to try to follow your thoughts you would see that they go from subject to subject to subject. To catch them in any act is very hard.

The same is true for your emotions. They have a tendency to just jump up and surprise us. Usually by the time we recognize an emotional state, such as anger, we might be to far gone too be able to change what is going on.

But words are different. When you speak a sentence you have the ability to immediately change it. To either reorder the words or change the words altogether. Instead of saying "You make me mad" you could say "What you are doing makes me mad". There is a world of difference between those two sentences.
