The Silence.

With recent introspection of self; I come to understand a problem about, which have led to numerous fights in the past. They are saying the things they are not ready to put forth, saying things impulsively without even holding for a second. There are countless reasons for this, to make people know that I am someone, to state what I think, who also has its own worth. It also now seems that I tried to look big or right by bringing others down to gain some respect or to prove my point of being aggressive and some God like reverence to myself. I am ready to say everything that can be said to stand on the position that is of worth and make others see me that I am important too, to make other see my point of view too. And, in the process I have always said more than I should have.

Never ever thought about the importance of silence before now, Never thought why I have two lips and a brain to think. The main reason I could think of is reasoning the right time to talk, and the right time not to. To be able to envisage when my words are needed to be heard, and when I am to be silent even when situation and circumstances around me seemingly want me to speak. 

Life is a bit complicated and demanding. It has thrown me off balance, giving no reason to be logical. However, I have no control over many situations but I do have control over my life. I try to look at myself more than looking and meditating on others. Saying too much has provided the arsenal to get hurt with my own words. Being mysterious, would mean not getting hurt. Words would not be used as ammunition to attack. 

Have to be still in thoughts, in conversation. People may/will yell at me, I will do nothing. They come calling at me when I do not want, I will do nothing. Will stay calm, and do nothing. I am not ignoring/avoiding them, I am doing a favour to myself. I will not give any means to anybody to get on me. There will be situations when people will keep coming up with ways to define me, because I am not giving any. Instead of trying to give reason as to why I am better and why they are wrong, why not just keep quiet, and work towards something more meaningful then proving my point? Bearing in mind that I have a goal better than circumstances around me. There is a popular expression that Silence is the best response to a fool, but I am not trying to prove anybody a fool, the whole essence of going my particular path is for my own sake. Starting bearing in mind that nobody knows anything about me, is the moment I began to understand that talking to convince people about who I am, doesn’t really work. I do not necessarily need to respond to anything they will say if they intend to draw a reaction from me and then use it against me. Just leave them in silence and let all the action do the talking. Will smile on with the choice of saying nothing. 

All I am required to do is listen and let them figure out their own.
