"for out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks"

"The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks."

i've become too dependent on words i shouldn't say. words that don't speak life.

so, for lent, i'm giving up those words.

it's going to be hard. there are certain times and situations where only those certain words are appropriate. times that it becomes more difficult to express my emotions in short words or phrases.

on the top of the list of things to go is "that's what she said." because, let's face it. it's funny, but how much good is it really doing?

I totally know what you mean, it's something I need to work on too- sadly, I could have said "that's what she said" to at least 3 things in your post.
