A careless word may kindle strife,
A cruel word may wreck a life,
A bitter word may hate instill;
A brutal word may smite and kill.
A gracious word may smooth the way;
A joyous word may light the day.
A timely word may lessen stress;
A loving word may heal and bless.

The Seven
The Seven is a single deity with seven aspects, each symbolizing a different area of life, though most people refer to The Seven as separate gods.
The Mother is prayed to for mercy, and watches over fertility, childbirth, and peace. The Father sits in judgement over souls. The Warrior is prayed to for protection, valor, and skill in battle. The Crone is the symbol of wisdom and foresight. The Smith watches over creation and craftsmanship. The Maiden symbolizes purity, love, and beauty.
Finally, there is The Stranger, rarely prayed to, who represents death.
