A knife wound heals; a wound caused by words does not—Turkish Proverb.
Meaning:

Thoughts:
In today’s modern world we live in is a new world is so-called social media. We post photos, videos, comments,
etc. to our social handles (Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, etc.) However, sometimes
we receive negative comments on the content we post that hurts. Also, the abuse in social
media platforms is common. We know words hurt a lot in social media or in the real
world where we live in—sometimes bad words thrown by our love one's father,
mother bother or friends that won’t heal quickly.
I know words
mean a lot to us but my piece of advice to you is “do not divert yourself from
your goal by these words.
Vocabulary:
-
Wound (noun)

the body, such as a cut or hole in
