Silence Power

A L O H A !



" Write your Sad times in Sand,
Write your Good times in Stone. "

  George Bernard Shaw







" If you wouldn't write it 
and sign it, 
don't say it. "

Earl Wilson




" I have often regretted my speech,
but never my silence. "

- Publilius Syrus




" Don't talk - keep it in your heart.  "
 Duke Kahanamoku

Silence
has enormous power.


The "cold shoulder"
is merely
the lowest form of it.

Let your silence
be a welcoming space,
instead of
wall.



      warmly, cloudia

silence is such a valuable resource with huge power...people really don't know how to respond to silence...it makes them nervous...

the walking man said...

Too many have been silent for to long. Now is the time to be heard and be heard loudly and strongly.

Peace and silence are meant for quiet times not for times when the world you as a nation and an individual have built is being destroyed by the few to feed their greed.

How much money, how much power does one man need over the lives of them who have never had a chance to be more than a slave to a job?

Only the fear filled will from this point forward stay silent.

Sometimes it pays to be silent lest you make a fool of yourself. A photo of a rainbow is always welcome :-).

Thank you for the inspiring and thought-provoking quotes! As such, allow me to leave one I came across recently that has been added to my shortlist of candidates for my modus operandi the next time it comes up for revision:

A civilization flourishes when people plant trees under which they will never sit.
Quote by - Greek Proverb

Walking Man sets the Yang to the Yin of silence.

Out of silence, may we find the clarity and voice to make Right heard!

Thanks to EACH of you for generously sharing yourselves. Such gifts!
