Silence Can Be Golden

Our silence can be our loudest message.  So much of the time, it’s what we don’t say that speaks louder than anything we do say.

Most people feel like they have to speak their mind.  However, most of the time, if they would just give a peace of mind rather than a piece of their mind things would turn out much better for all.  There are many times when just a pat on the back, a hug, a smile is all that is needed.  Words are very powerful, but so are our actions. There is something to be said about just standing beside someone, letting them know that you have their back and you are with them no matter what happens.  Usually people don’t remember what we say, but how we make them feel.  Your actions can make them feel much better.  If you do find it absolutely necessary to speak, be sure what you say.  Choose your words carefully when you speak.  Know that your silence can speak very clearly and strong too.
