Wilfred- “Oder- Or”
10 October 877
Or someone will take advantage of you
And use you for their own purposes
Do not fall into the trap of
Someone sweet talking you
Into doing something
And not paying you back for it
Do not become entangled with someone
You have no intention of dealing with
In five to ten years time
Especially in a relationship
Where it is dealing with money
Do not speak
Unless you want to
And only
If
You want to
A lot of people speak
Because they want to fill the air with chatter
Due to the fact that
They are uncomfortable with silence
Especially their own
Do not be like them
Instead treasure your silence
And the silent moments you get
Especially in conversations
Other cultures pride themselves
On their ability to use silence
To enhance their relationships with others
And in society
Take a cue
And use silence meaningfully
Think in silence
Walk in silence
Breathe in silence
Live in silence
Ninety-nine percent of talk is either three things:
One negative idiocy to make someone feel less than
Two- to avoid being in silence for any length of time
Three- to fill the boredom and make small talk
I caution against making small talk
With anyone you meet
Because it then turns to gossip
Which then turns to lying
And a ruined reputation
Avoid it
At all costs
Be loyal to yourself
And your overlord
Whoever they may be
And do not listen to liars
Because they will bring you down
And throw you to the wolves
Whilst smiling in your face
End each day in prayer and solitude by yourself
You need time away from people
You need time away from your spouse
You need time to think
You need time to grow
You need time to meditate
You need time to be silent
Remember to rest
Rest your voice
Rest your heart
Rest your body
Rest your mind
Rest your spirit
Rest your soul
Rest your nerves
And you will be satisfied.
