The Power Of Silence. by Bekgra: 8:18pm On Mar 23
Some people sees Silence as a sign of weakness or avoidance. In some circumstances, silent it a powerful tool for mindfulness, self-reflection, and effective way of communicating to others.

By understanding when to be silence over words, you can navigate your relationships and interactions more skillfully with people, fostering deeper connection and inner peace.

Thus, when should one stay silence?

Stay silence:

1. When the urge to speak up immediately arises. Take a moment to pause, reflect on your thoughts and the effects your words will have on others.

2. When you can't change the situation and the decision has been made, rather ask yourself questions regarding the situation to know if it's true, false, necessary or make any sense.

3. When the information is inadequate, embrace stillness and silence to be sure before speaking up.

4. When you need to listen, rather than being heard.

5. When your speech may hurt others, such as harsh words or lying, stay calm.

6. When you are not informed adequately, it's best to stay silent.

People don't know and definitely appreciate how I have grow to become silent or more appropriately calm. They don't know how much effort I've put into building myself into this calm gentle guy. They rather see me as a dunce or a weakling but I really don't care as it's actually worth it. I some see myself as a sane person with a very sound mind when I'm calm in the midst of chaotic people trying to prove right or shift the blame to me. Immediately you are talking to me I'm already reflecting and dissecting your words and I take my blame and put you to your place if it's going to affect me. Nowadays people talk too much without saying anything it's really get me annoyed but I still wouldn't talk if I'm not going to be affected. FTC

You are right, but the issue here is for you to be mindful of your speech in any situation you find yourself. Before you speak up, just calm down weigh the impacts. This is because, your words might hurt you back or other people in that situation and at the end you end up regretting it.

Also note: Words when spoken, will never come back. People will definitely refer to those words when you least expect it, whether negative or positive.
