Speech filtration

You know.. we all need to practise some form of speech filtration. We need say things that really matter.. to say things that can impact people positively... Yes.. most of you probably think you are already experts in this department.

"I dispense good advice to people all the time."

Well.. the truth is.. good advise may not be the best thing to say.. the truth may not be the best thing to say...

Remember the oracle from Matrix.. When Neo came to her the first time.. she almost immediately told him that he was not THE ONE. Yes.. That's a lie... sorta... but that's what he needed to hear most... Because this would inspire him to risk his life to save morpheus.. which is a necessary action to fulful his destiny as THE ONE...

So.. the point is.. sometimes.. we need to structure and massage the truth abit to say the things that really matter. It does not have to be a lie. But the truth can sometimes really destroy someone. Sadly... this will lead inevitably to the topic of choice. Surely everyone has a choice to know the truth and make a logical decision whether to act as responsible adults or to blow their top.

Yes.. but one must question.. if A tells B that his wife is cheating on him... and B goes ahead to murder the adulterer... is A partly responsible for the death of the adulterer? Could A have acted better by choosing a better circumstance to disclose the truth. Or perhaps.. acted as a good friend by trying to mediate and solve the problem with B's wife and the adulterer behind B's back. At least no on will be killed and B can continue to love his wife as before.

Well.. the adult world is immensely complicated. But words.. are powerful... so before you say anything.. think of the consequences... Remember that you convince yourself that you are not responsible but when it all boils down to the basics... can you live with yourself... afterall.. it is WITH YOURSELF that you have to spend the rest of your life with.
