Simple Silence

Simple said, "Yes, I will." Simple thought, This will work for me. Silence thought, I will go along, without voice. Simple thought, Frankly, because I do not want to. Simple said. "No, thank you." Silence thought, we choose not to share our ideas, that's why. Simple said, "Yes, I will do this, but no, I will not do that." Simple said this without apology. Silence sat quietly, watching with pride. Simple Silence. Nothing as powerful.

Hi dear Caren, Silence is golden when talking is not necessary. Silence is wise when without saying everything says ... Everything is simple, the man complicates by not knowing what to say or silence ... Simplicity is everything ... even in the big issues of the world.   The simple is smart And you made a beautiful exhibition diso ... salute alkas.
