In this narrative, I reflect on my relationship with language and its impact on my life. From the playful fascination with curse words in my youth to the profound realizations about the weight of words, I share snapshots of my experiences in chronological order. Each period in my life presented unique lessons about communication and the implications of my choices. Though I steer clear of using curse words, I explore how they shaped my understanding and connection with others, ultimately leading to a deeper appreciation for the power words hold in our lives.
