You don't have to win every argument,
you're not obliged to always reply and most especially you can be silent.

In an argument when you become silent, the opposing party will initially think that you've lost, that you gave up. But that's not the only perspective, you chose to be silent maybe because you maturely think that prolonging the argument leads to nothing. Thus, you chose to be silent.

When there are no more words to say, Silence speaks.

Silence sometimes speaks the loudest. When life throws questions at you and you choose to be silent, a lot of people will think that you are being a coward because you did not do anything about it immediately and only chose to be silent. But that's not true, you chose to contemplate it within yourself, tried to find answers in your mind only to appear silent in the naked eyes of those judgmental people. They think you're silent but your mind is actually a being loud.

I have always been misinterpreted with my silence, they think I'm avoiding and they think I'm being cowardly. But I'm really thinking a lot.

But i believe, Silence is Intelligence, Silence is Brave, and Silence is Mature.

Learn When to be silent and and learn when to talk. Because a noisy can is empty, but a silent can is full.

Truly yours,
Arvill
