Sometimes not doing anything is the right thing to do.

There have been times in my life where I've tried so hard towards seeing something through that at the end I see it sink due to overdoing it. This even goes to say with social interactions and trying to help people.

When it Boils down to people

“silence is the language of god,
all else is a poor translation.”
― Jalaluddin Mevlana Rumi

Sometimes people are so eager to see something true that they get blindsided and reject all forms of communication regarding the subject.

Even if it's beneficial.

Depending on the person it could even get worse if one tries persistently to give him information. Some even take this as a sign of negativity even if its right and end up fueling the opposite notion.

Some would say that as a form of Egocentric behavior but I'd like not to judge, so I'll just look at it as forms of choices that they make.

Often people get mad/angry or overall negative towards others, just because they refuse to even process the information that has been given to them. So this could be a double-edged blade for many.

Not doing anything

I've always told myself that Life is the Ultimate teacher and I have yet to prove myself wrong. That is even one of the meanings to life if we look at it from a "Spiritual" point of view, having the ability to learn and grow on a soul level as we go by in our everyday hustle and bustle.

When people decide to avoid information, even if you are absolutely certain that outcome will be in favor of it, it would be wiser to stay silent and let them go on, even if that means watching them take the wrong turn.

We may refuse to take advice at times in our life's path but we know what failure is.

With failure comes a great opportunity for learning from one's mistakes. Sometimes it's even necessary to fail in order to learn from the experience itself.

To avoid the pain, sometimes we are forced to sit and watch as one falls so he may rise up yet again, stronger with every scar he makes, as these scars are his lessons and trophies for trying.

Rather than being angry at people for trying something stupid, honor them for having the courage to sink with the ship as proud captains.

Sooner or later they learn either way.

yes, sometime it may be a good decision,,,,,likewise you mention that quote above....“silence is the language of god all else is a poor translation.”..thanx for sharing so much useful life regarding informations

In the picture you painted above, it is obviously to stay silent. I do this with my sister often and even husband. Whenever I feel they dont want to listen to me and won't accept what I am saying, I become silent and give them time to absorb the information, reflect on it and decide for themselves. It works almost always.

Great insights!
