Do You Have A Swear Jar

Recently made one for my dad as he swears so much. He has to add 50p if he says a bad word, 60p if he is caught but lies and £1 if it is a phrase. £10 has already been added.

    Also, for those who do have a swear jar, how much do you have to add?

    £12 in the swear jar now. Forgot to mention it. My mum said 4 swear words. I added a £2 coin on her behalf.

    We have a swear jar at work but often forget about it 😂 we have to put a bit of silver in and it gets donated to charity 😊

    No. Both my missus and myself swear a lot. But rarely in front of the kids.

    Who gets the money? 
    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley
