It Was Only



It was only a word but it sunk the sentence. 

The sentence in turn undermined the message. 

The message sabotaged that conversation and the next one and the next. 

Those conversations eventually destroyed the relationship by strangling trust, which is always fragile. 

And with the death of trust, the person's reputation for integrity rapidly crumbled.

Only a word.
