Silence - A Powerful tool

SILENCE – A Powerful Tool

Are you silent person?                            Yes

Do you count it as your weakness?         Yes

No, my friend, it is your seamless power.

“Do not mistake quietness for weakness.

Evil is often better addressed in silence “

                                                                -Naide P Obiang

When you face critical situations, then silence is the best way to get out of it. And loudness is one’s Achilles heel.

“Be silent, not to avoid conflict, but to get peace”

A peaceful human being can outperform. With your peace you can buy the peace for all. And it is a kind of melody through this everyone who surrounds you can look for positive energy.

Spontaneous answering always leaves you in a situation where you hurt yourself and repent. So, it is always better to hold back and give time only through your mind and ears. In most of the situations, our spoken words worsen the situation. Silence is the best tool to convey your message.

There is very good story behind this in our history:

There were two friends – One was son of King and other was son of Farmer. During their childhood, they shared their books, food and clothes. After few years, time came when both were to be separated as both of them have their own responsibilities. At that time, the son of king promised other one that whenever he will start ruling his kingdom, he will share half of it with him. But other one had no such interest and started living his life. As years passed, Farmer’s son getting poor day by day and now water crossed his heads so he decided to approach his friend to ask for one cow through which it can get milk and sell it, can get money.

When he approached him, King’s son had fear in his mind as he did not want to share anything with him. So King’s son told his friend that he cannot give any part of his kingdom as he was immature when he promised. And friendship can be in equal status people.

Farmer’s son left disheartened but friends, if King’s son would have heard him first, then he would have known that he had come there not for his kingdom but for the little help which was not a big thing for King’s son.  So,

“Next time when you stumble upon a silent person, listen up “

                                                                                               - Frank Sonnenberg

We need to open our mind before our mouth.

Silence itself is great gravitational force which attracts others to speak and gives chance to us for becoming good listeners.

So, next time, give chance to silencers as they have many things to say which you do not know.
