Taylor, I moved your topic since it seems to belong here (you did nothing wrong in posting, especially since we haven't set up guidelines as to where you should post to get the best response) if it doesn't go here you let me know please :)
Now, regarding what you said, I see that age old phrase as a piece of advice. Yes, words hurt, they destroy, but they can also do a world of good. I see that piece as saying they are just words. Yes they hurt, but if you learn to not let them to they can't. You aren't able to let a physical blow not hurt you unless you physically respond to the attacker. Responding to verbal abuse only tends to escalate the issue, but finding it in you to realize that they are just words. You can tune them out, you can let them roll off you. It isn't easy, but you can. I have done it. You have the power to let what others say affect you as you wish. The trick is to find that power within yourself :)
I would like for you to elaborate what encouraged you to post what you did for me, if you wouldn't mind, this sounds like it stems from a deeper issue.
