Ok guys here's a challenge.

I want to write a song about how certain people say one thing to you and you remember it your whole life and you never got a chance to tell them how much those words meant to you.  And what have you said to someone else that they never forgot and you will never know it either.

Most would be good things, but things could be awful. The point being, words matter more than you think.

Tell me something someone said to you that you remembered your whole life.

One of mine is. "All they can do is say no". Everytime I was afraid to audition for something or do something, my grandma said that and it's served me well over my entire life.  I've asked for things that sound crazy, but that phrase at least to ask for it!  What's the worst that could happen? Right?

Help me out here guys!
