Reflections:01-03-2009

The one who is free from wasteful words is the one who can be light.
Sometimes when something only needs a few words to explain, we
continue to speak and expand on it for a long time. We actually use
more words than necessary thinking we are clarifying things. We give
the justification to ourselves that it is necessary or the other
person does not understand. These words sometimes disturb the other
person and spoil our relationships too. We constantly need to pay
attention to the words that we speak. We need to check if we are using
any more words than we actually need to. When we remind ourselves of a
simple slogan, "speak less, speak softly and speak sweetly", our words
will never be those that disturb others. We will then be able to
maintain our own lightness and that of others too.
