All That Talking…

Words can create peace or war depending on situations we are in. What else could go wrong when you speak your opinion at the wrong time and wrong place? You end up getting yourself in a whole lot of trouble.

Biggest crime one can commit, is saying something without having any bad motive and someone else react to what we say in a negative manner.You will be sitting down alone and wonder what did you say that has offended this person so much to throw a harsh comment at you. That’s when you will realise that what you have said in the most casual and innocent manner is accepted by someone as something extremely offensive.

What can someone do in this situation? Best cure is always to apologise and remember the golden rule. “Shut up, mind your own business and speak only when you are spoken to.” This is an extremely useful mantra in forging good relationships with people.

 Of course this doesn’t mean that we can’t stand up for justice at the most critical moments in our life. We should take more precaution and test water before jumping into it and getting ourselves into a whole lot of trouble. A lesson that should be remembered for as long as I can. Hope I don’t get into the same problem again……. praying hard…….
