No one ever regrets keeping silent.
- Proverb

Reflection of the day

Meaning of the Proverb
It's better to stay silent than to speak out of turn.
Often, when we speak impulsively, we end up regretting it - we hurt others, get ourselves into trouble, say too much or say it poorly. But we rarely - almost never - regret staying quiet, especially when words wouldn't have changed anything or might have only made things worse.

This proverb is a call for caution, for knowing how to choose our words wisely, and for recognizing the value of silence as a form of intelligence and self-control.

No one has ever woken up in the morning regretting that they kept quiet.
Words are like bullets: once fired, they can't be taken back. And they often miss the target, hitting everything around it instead.
Staying silent is like keeping your finger on the trigger, then deciding not to shoot.
It's a quiet act, but full of strength.
Silence doesn't wound. It doesn't accuse. It doesn't humiliate.
It's just silence.
And sometimes, it's the wisest thing you can say.
