• The Manipulating Tongue
• The Hasty Tongue
• The Divisive Tongue
• The Argumentative Tongue
• The Boasting Tongue
• The Self-Deprecating Tongue
• The Slandering Tongue
• The Gossiping Tongue
• The Meddling Tongue
• The Betraying Tongue
• The Belittling Tongue
• The Cynical Tongue
• The Know-It-All Tongue
• The Harsh Tongue
• The Tactless Tongue
• The Intimidating Tongue
• The Rude Tongue
• The Judgmental Tongue
• The Self-Absorbed Tongue

• The Complaining Tongue
• The Retaliating Tongue
• The Accusing Tongue
• The Discouraging Tongue
• The Doubting Tongue

I found my tongues in the list. I didn’t realize I spoke so many languages. I decided to hone my tongues down to two—the tongues of truth and love.
