the power of the word no

no.

no no no no noooo.

NO.

no is a powerful word, and to be honest i've been hearing it a lot recently. no is a powerful word because it has the ability to crush someones heart into a million pieces, but understandably the word no has to be said from time to time.

in it's simplest form, no is a negative reaction to something. we associate the word no with something bad, even from a young age, when we do something bad we're told "no, don't do that". but is no really always a bad thing?

the answer, surprisingly enough, is no. despite the fact that we'd probably like everyone to say yes to the things we propose, what we want isn't always in the best interest of the people, and this is when the word no is a good thing.

on the other hand certain languages don't have yes or no systems, such as latin. but right enough, namedy speaks latin dae they, cause it's shite.

but fact of the matter is, no is a good thing, and we shouldn't really look at it as a negative, in a world where we're all to wrapped up in our own worlds we should look to see if the heartbreaking response of "no" really is for the best.

or no, whatever.
