Being silent does not mean weakness.
How are you all? I hope you are all doing properly, or seeking to be well, due to the fact that all of us walk through some kind of war every day. Today I need to share some of my mind with you. These are not massive speeches, not words taught via any e-book; these are the truths that I have gained from my own life, from my personal feelings.
We often see that some people remain silent even when they are suffering. There is no complaint in their eyes, no protest on their faces. From the outside, it seems that they may be weak, maybe they are broken inside. But the truth is actually the opposite. Being silent is not always a sign of weakness. Many times it is the result of deep strength, patience and good education.
I myself have faced many moments in my life where I could have easily protested if I wanted. I could have spoken harshly if I wanted, I could have blamed if I wanted. But my mind did not agree anywhere. It seemed that this silence was perhaps my biggest answer. Then I realised what my parents taught me in my childhood. Not everything can be answered with words, which is what holds me together today.
Being silent does not mean that it does not hurt. Rather, many times, the silent people suffer the most. They fight with themselves at night, not showing it to anyone. They know that not every fight can be won, but in every fight, you cannot belittle yourself. That is why they choose silence.
I agree that a terrific schooling not only teaches human beings to speak properly, but also teaches them when to be silent. Those who do not cross the road even if they are hurt, those who do not surrender their values even if they are insulted, are absolutely very sturdy humans. Their strength is not in shouting, but in self-appreciation.
In this society, everyone fights with words, and everyone wants to prove that they are right. But there are very few people who know how to keep their inner peace alive. I respect those people. Because they know that even if you are silent today, time will answer all questions one day.
If you are silent today, even if you are hurt, do not consider yourself weak. Remind yourself. You grew up with an education where being human is the greatest achievement. Your silence will one day be known as your strength.
