May my silences become more accurate. -Theodore Roethke, poet (1908-1963)
Very thought provoking! On reflection I have come to realize that often my silence in a given situation is not because it is the best response but rather flows from discomfort, inappropriate anger, ignorance, or some other cause. Clearly, this leads to problems in communication. Further reflection makes me realize that becoming more accurate in my silences is not an easy matter. It can’t be addressed directly.
