Silence

To speak or not to speak, that is the question. Silence could be a sign of strength and can also be that of weakness. Is either not saying what will put you in trouble or not saying what will put others in shock. Being quiet is not to be silent but they might be seen from the same angle.

When someone found out that he is different, he'll have to tell his story either the good way or the bad way. People's choice is theirs and they should know how they can choose the best way rather than just arguing without knowing what they are doing.

Silence is the term used when one lacks the courage to speak out against what is wrong. Silence could be a sign of wisdom, fear, obedience, menstruation, boredom and course lack of knowledge.

A man in the house who gives peace or a man who causes trouble? A woman in the house who causes peace or a woman who causes trouble? A child who is disciplined in the house or a child who causes trouble? Are these scenarios cause for celebration? Or are they signs of weakness? Are they a sign of strength?

Silence is necessary in our daily lives but it could be a sign of strength or weakness. There are things that we are not supposed to say but then there are those things that are best that are not to be said. It is normal for a person to keep quiet about his or her business. Silence could either be a strength or a weakness. Silence is a sign of weakness when it comes to the challenges in life and silence is a sign of strength when it comes to the challenges in life. Silence could give an impression of weakness but then again silence can also be viewed as a strength.

For example, when you are in a meeting room you are expected to be quiet but yet some are being silent because they just don't have anything to say. Silence could be a sign of strength where some people don't want to be heard and might feel uncomfortable speaking in a session. It also could be a sign of weakness as some people are saying nothing but should have been heard. Silence could also mean that some people had already spoken and are waiting for others to speak and add ideas to the content that had already been presented.

Silence could also mean that some people just want to be unnoticed or else will sidetrack the topic in question. A strong individual will always share his/her views with others because he/she believes he/she has the good knowledge to contribute. We should be careful with our viewpoint of silence, we should never judge a book by its cover as silence could be all you see as a sign of weakness or just as a sign of strength.

Silence could be a sign of strength and can also be that of weakness. Is either no saying what will put you in trouble or no saying what will put others in shock. Being quiet is not to be silent but they might be seen from the same angle.

Skill, attitude, discipline and love for the game will help any sportsman to win a match. In the same way, a good work ethic, great attitude and skilful hands can help a programmer to achieve his goals without much noise. Silence is the power which helps one to clam up and think.

If a person keeps to himself and is silent, you might think that the person is strong and responsible and people will trust him. On the other hand, you might think that a person is a coward and unreliable. But the real meaning of being quiet is not to be silent but be smart, observant and intelligent. In Job 21:5 it says,

"Behold even the moon has no brightness and the stars are not pure in his eyes; How much less man, who is but a maggot (maggoty worm)

How much less man, the disgraceful offspring of a trampled worm!

Even so, you say, 'What does God know? Can he judge through the deep darkness?"

And further in v 11-12, it says:

"Even if He should kill me. I would hope in Him. Still, I will maintain my ways before Him."

"I will praise Him according to His justice. Even if He will kill me."

So even if your faith is not great as Job's, you could be quiet and wait on God's promise.

Silence could be a sign of strength and can also be that of weakness. Being quiet is not to be silent but they might be seen from the same angle. When you are asked to keep your silence it is said to be a sign of respect or humbleness which can also be a sign of fear or even weakness but how do we see it, how do we measure it, how do we know which class it belongs to? So many questions and so few answers or maybe nothing at all.
