THERE ARE SOME WHO DESCRIBE THEIR PHYSICAL DIAGNOSIS AS "THEIR OWN", THEY TEND TO VERBALLY "OWN IT", E.G. - "MY DIABETES, MY CANCER, MY GLUCOSE READING, MY ARTHRITIS"...YOUR WORDS HAVE POWER AND EVEN IF THEY DO NOT AFFECT YOU INSTANTLY, PSYCOLOGICALLY, THEY DO. THEREFORE I ASK YOU, DO YOU THINK MOST PEOPLE THINK BEFORE THEY SPEAK? YES, THEY THINK BEFORE SPEAKING
