Okay everyone knows what are harsh words .But let me try to define it to understand what are exactly harsh words .

What are HARSH WORDS?
Any coherent words which are unbearable to anyone's ear,heart , mind or soul .

Harsh words / rude actions or gestures  have hurt each one of us including me at any point of our respective lives  .

"Tongue has no bones but it has the power of break hearts ".We all may heard this but still harsh words are used by everyone. We all would have definitely hurt anyone intentionally or unintentionally by our harsh words .Why  is it so that we use harsh words to each other ?Because it is human natural habit , Nope not at all .

A child who is born is unaware of harsh words or hurtful actions that means by nature or by birth humans  are not using these cruel words.

There are several causes/reasons for harsh words spoken around.

REASON/CAUSE

Anger  is the one of the major reasons for the usage for harsh words .Usually harsh words are spoken just out of anger and  without  a proper reasoning.Anger makes people utter those things which they don't mean to say or which they can't even think in their wildest imagination.

Jealousy and insecurity  are one of the reasons  for harsh words or actions.  Out of Jealousy human an speak nonsense or even the most hurtful words .

Revenge is also a common reason .Often people seek revenge by saying harsh  words or by spreading false rumors . There so also another form of exchange of harsh words in encounter  attack to former harsh words spoken .

To sound cool enough in front of others .This is an  unusual reason but it also  happens .Usually people hurl abuses to  sound cool. People these days write hateful things on social media also known  as Trolling either to gain attention  or to sound cool /daring .Some people never reply straight to a simple question just to sound cool or to show that they are full of confidence.

Misunderstanding is another reason. Sometimes these Misunderstandings/half truth causes people to hurt others with harsh words .

CURE

If the person who spoke out harsh words  knows you   personally then  talking with a calm mind to them will definitely helping finding  a solution or at least a clarification or closure .

If the person is stranger then either ignoring is the best option or taking stern and rational action is necessary if he crosses the  line or causes you mental harassment. For example reporting an online troll.

If you that person knows you through social circle .For example anyone from your  neighbourhood then confrontation with firmness is necessary.

Almost all humans have uncontrollable tongues which loves speaking but sometimes their words or talks make no sense and are just rubbish .So the easiest way is to give a cold shoulder to these people .

Harsh words should be taken from one ear and thrown out from the other ear is actually another  wise advise to tackle this problem  without disturbing your own mental  peace  and also it saves your  precious time too  .
