Silence



He chose to remain silent where as she chose to speak out.
He believes that the silence will make the boiling anger to subside.
She considers that keeping silent increases the friction between the two, and the anger isn't consumed. She believes only the words spoken can make the anger subside.

Both these friends have decided to get married. She has to understand him and to listen to his silence. As Mason Cooley says 'after an argument, silence may mean acceptance or the continuation of resistance by other means.' He has understand her as there is another thought stating that 'spiteful words can hurt your feelings but silence breaks your heart.'

There are various other thoughts. Like:
> 'There are times when silence has the loudest voice.'
> 'Absolute silence leads to sadness. It is the image of death.'
> 'Silence is golden when you can't think of a good answer.'
> 'Silence is the element in which great things fashion themselves.'

Now I am in a dilemma deciding whether is silence really golden or is it just showing that all that glitters is not gold.

Well..I believe in speaking out your mind and clearing things.. rather that piling them up in your mind until they burst out...where the situation gets too ugly... :-)

Yup! though silence is sometimes an easier way to end any conversation, thats not the ultimate solution. I will definitely say, speaking out your heart is the best thing :-)

Anyways, nice thoughtful post Shine! :-)
