The Eloquent Tongue: A Sacred Trust
"The Almighty bestowed upon humanity the gift of the pen, that our thoughts may flow like rivers, and our words, like blossoms, may bloom with elegance. Yet, let us not forget the sacred origin of our eloquence – the tender tongues of our mothers and fathers, who first taught us to speak.
As we wield the power of language, let us remember the fragile hearts that nurtured our voices. Our parents, now gray and wise, once whispered sweet nothings into our ears, guiding us through life's labyrinth.
Let us honor their legacy with gentle words, soft as summer breezes. For as they age, their hearts become vulnerable to the sharp edges of our tongues. Let us temper our eloquence with compassion, lest we wound the ones who first taught us to speak.
Respect for our parents is the cornerstone of wisdom, the seat of love. It is the unwritten scripture that echoes through generations, reminding us that our words have the power to heal or harm.
May our tongues be instruments of kindness,
May our words be bouquets of gratitude,
May our eloquence be a sanctuary for the fragile hearts that nurtured us,
And may our respect for our parents be the unwavering foundation of our wisdom."
