To Hold One's Tongue

Being aware and keeping my energy up consciously seem to have also helped with my overall day to day energy. It seems like even without my usual number of hours of sleep it doesn't affect me. I don't feel lethargic like I used to for the past couple of months already. I'm able to enjoy life even more this way.

I suddenly thought about a friend yesterday because I haven't seen her for the longest time. And after a while she sent me a text of greeting saying the same thing. Energy flows in beautiful and mysterious ways.

Tonight the house-maid broke a water pipe. I was debating with myself whether or not to lecture her on her stupidity and couldn't come up with a right answer as I could tell my emotion was running high. And that was caused by the discomfort of not having water and the challenges tomorrow will bring when looking for someone to come and fix something which I am not sure whether it can be fixed.

Discomfort is something that we have come to be so used to. And once we don't have it we're out of our comfort zone and desires so much for the normalcy that is defined by our mind.

Also whether or not the pipe can be fixed is not up to me to decide and yet my mind want to make that decision straight away.

In the end I held my tongue because whatever I said wasn't going to fix the situation but only satisfy my ego for letting off the frustration.

If the words that are going to come out of our mouths aren't going to be helpful to anyone then it's better left unsaid.
