Tongue And Finger

Everybody has tongue and finger, but between human to human, tongue will hurt other people by inadequate words and finger, when in argument, will point to the person you are arguing. The action of pointing out the finger toward the opponent may led a fight which may not be necessary.
Words are like an arrow. Once the words speak out, it can never come back. Therefore, in order to avoid any argument with people, you should be very careful to control your tongue in every occasion.
Finger has a habit that when you argue with people, the first thing you do is to point your finger toward your opponent. You shall never point to your ourself. But this action will lead a fight possibly.
In England, at Shakespeare time, if people wanted o fight with some person, he just bit his finger at his mouth as a sign to despise the person. If the person could not bear his insult, the fight would then start with their swords which were allowed for people to carry by the law at that time. As a result, wounds or death may be the end.
Therefore, we should always control our tongue to any one, to friends, even to family. Never to say offend words if unnecessary.
