“Words today are like the shells and
rope of seaweed which a child brings
home glistening from the beach and
which in an hour have lost their luster.”

Lovely quote, but I disagree. Words, even today, carry weight into eternity.
“I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for every careless word they speak, for by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.” Jesus, Matthew 12:36-37

I, too, was thinking about how often you hear the words “love you” as a casual response.

I picked up the most beautiful seashell left abandoned on the beach. Brought it home, and the next day it was as white as these. At least I have the photos of its natural beauty. 🐚

I thought so, too. They used to be shades of brown and amber just coming out of the Gulf. 🧡🐚🤎
