My Riffs

Don't add fuel to the fire. There's so many people worked up over so many different things. They're voices are amplified by technology. It's easy to hop on the current rage train and add fuel to the fire. But so many times that doesn't actually help the cause. Don't add fuel to the fires. They will go out on their own if enough people refrain from fuelling them.

Heard this quote on IG tonight :) "The ultimate tragedy is not the oppression and cruelty by the bad people but the silence over that by the good people." - Martin Luther King

It's okay to not have a response to everything.

There's no need to speak in silence. Learning to be comfortable with silence is an important thing. I'm a HUGE proponent of communication. But communication without silence is just noise. We need time to reflect, and that happens in silence. Even when you're with someone else, don't be afraid of the silence. When you're talking, you're probably not learning or reflecting. So... Being silent is at times just as much or more effective than speaking.
