Help me please, dear God,
teach
me what to say,
help me to understand what I should ask for,
when I speak to
You.
Please, show me the right way to approach You,
Just how I should speak
to You in my own words,
like I would pour my heart out to my own best friend,
like a little child before You. – Rebbe Nachman
“To say the right thing at the right time, keep still most of the time.” John W. Roper Those who get in trouble most often are those cannot seem to keep still, remain silent. Life teaches many lessons. Among the best lessons of life is one my father taught me at an early age was, “If you have nothing nice to say, say nothing.” The contributions we make to life via our mouth are many and varied. Most of the time, I reckon, they are not contributions at all, but things that diminish the richness of life.
