Drabble Challenge #52

Prompt: cracked

Words are the reflections of the thoughts in our minds, and the thoughts in our minds are the reflections of our soul. Nothing of any great importance has ever been spoken without this connection.

But what if the reflections are cracked, as in a broken mirror? What happens then?

Here is what happens: a cracked soul causes thoughts to be distorted, and distorted thoughts cause twisted words. The words spoken are still of great importance, but lead to the detriment of mankind rather than the benefit.

Such has been the source of all the evils in the course of history.
