“But pain is a great
teacher. Just as physical pain can
mobilize our defenses and alert us to deeper problems, so can emotional
pain. It has the function of awakening
us to the realization that there is something wrong in our lives, something
that needs attention. If we ignore inner pain, it will surely grow out of
control.” - Viktor Frankl
“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.
