SILENCE CAN HELP YOU EMERGE VICTORIOUS IN THE BATTLES OF LIFE
Life is a beautiful journey that teaches us a number of lessons. It is a real teacher that imparts such knowledge that no school can expect to provide. In the journey, we experience many varied situations and tread rocky terrains and are put into path-breaking situations which give us lessons. But do we take all those learnings and learn from the mistakes? Many of us don’t. On the contrary, we keep experiencing countless hardships but take no lessons from it, which leads to suffering. However, if after a certain age, we begin to introspect, we will reach a stage where we will not get into arguments with anybody. We will ultimately accomplish the understanding that arguments are worthless and there is no point in proving our point to anybody.
And above all, this feeling of not being answerable to anyone is extremely satisfying.
It leaves the mind unhindered. It is a beautiful situation which brings a person to a different level in life, where one is out of the worthless discussions and is in an absolutely peaceful state of mind. And, that truly is an achievement.
If we are able to overcome the urge to reply and react to all the things that are said to us, we have won a big personal battle because most of our problems are a result of that urge to respond.
At times silence can be golden.
