TO SAY OR NOT TO SAY…

Sometimes there’s something to say,

but this isn’t the time to say it.

Sometimes there’s something to say,

but it’s said to the wrong person or at the wrong place.

Sometimes there’s something to say,

but it’s not in your place to say it.

Sometimes there’s something to say,

but you don’t have all the facts,

You have not heard the other person’s side of the story,

So why rush to say it?

Sometimes there’s something to say,

But it’s actually better not to say it

As it may inflict wounds that are hard to heal.

Sometimes there’s something to say,

But showing it not saying it will drive home the point.

The art of knowing when to say, what to say, who to say it to is wisdom.
