The Color of Silence Printable Version PRINTABLE VERSION

Silence is indeed better than unwise speech. We need to be silent at times needed, and we need to speak as well. Both should be balanced, for the extremity of one may lead to the undesirable and wrong end. As it is beautifully stated in the Holy Bible, for every thing there is a season, a time to keep silence, and a time to speak. It is a fact that the extremity of both ends in madness, for researches indicate that the highest rate of people who commit suicide are the silent people, for they do not express outwardly.

In whatever culture silence is defined moderation is a good aspect we need to learn for every thing has its own limit and if it goes beyond that it may not be gold or safe and whatever good things it may offer us. Moderation in silence is not something that can be marginalized where we cannot draw a line that we can be silent up to this point it needs personal wise judgment and conscious discretion which may not lead to disappointment and wrong end.

Writing is a powerful instrument to promote one's ideology, so as to transform and galvanize the whole of humanity to have a better perspective about this world.

Words are just combinations of letters, but the power they exert in every human frame is still a mystery to all.

Writing uses these mysterious forces of words as a tool to introduce, induce and create vibrations in society, which do have an influence on every aspect of our life as human beings.

May the power of WORDS prevail over all!!
