I just realized most of my misery happened because of the stupid negative things I said to girls I dated that which I regret always. I always do that with the girls I like but not the ones I don't like, go figure :( Anyone else go through similar experience?

Oh, YEAH!! If I had done that, I would still have a job.
OTOH, the people I worked with at that job were the pits. So maybe I opened my big mouth and did myself a favor. Ya think?
P.S. I start a new job tomorrow, working from HOME!!! Yay!!

Yes. What the mouth says, however, is always what the mind thinks and what the heart feels (emotions). So it is also good to tune your mind and emotion into positive things.
This technique is not always sufficiently taught or stressed upon in many religions. On the other hand, many (religious) people fall into always judging that other people are sinful, wicked, not good enough, etc. and they become horrible persecutors.
So, having the right perception, the right intention, and the right speech is really important. Do you know whick religion teaches these things?

Yes I am agree with you if you are a wise man.Before we say something we should think it over what is favourable/advantage and unfavourable/disadvantage to us and to the other related party..We can also discuss it with our friends or colleage or or family for consultation.A wise proverb say that your mouth is your own tiger.Cruelty is bitter than killing.Your tongue is boneless so think it over and over again before you open your mouth.

If you are looking for the secret to happiness..Listen carefully...Happiness is not a destination,goal or achievement but the journey in which you took to get there. In other words, if you think that you have to have things to be happy...you probably won't be. If you realize that happiness is a decision,choice and state of mind then you will be much happier.

I agree 100%. Like you my misery is often the result of my mouth. Just can't control it sometimes. There have even been times I'm surprised by what comes out..lol.
My biggest problem is expressing myself, sometimes I know what I want to say but it all just comes out WRONG....hahaha....the story of my life these days!!

That is so powerful and so true! Unfortunately the tongue seems to be the hardest thing to bridle and we sometimes think twice and still open our mouth- I constantly have to remind myself to think twice and keep my mouth shut! LOL
A repentant heart and desire to change is a great start!Be blessed and be a blessing and may the words of your mouth be as apples of gold on settings of silver!

Yes , we all do that at one time or another.
We have to train our thoughts and minds
To speak right words
The tongue is and unruly member. but the mind can teach the tongue
what to say.
When you think a negative thought, replace with a positive thought
I can do all things through Christ that strenghtens me

Yes, absolutely...but I have to say, sometimes the spontaneous ideas and reactions one has are really the best. Like the old saying: Follow your nose ! There is a reason for each and every thought we have, you just have to pick the right one!
good luck..stay cool, but yourself!
