In speech, there is life, in speech, there is death. Words can either be a source for healing or destroying and so we need to be careful with our words. We should always strive to be honest but we must choose our words with great care. As always, if words do not improve the silence, it is better to remain silent. As it is, if silence is golden, most of us are gold poor. The Dao says nothing and cannot be heard yet it says much.
