(Short story) I think we should remain silent sometimes. What do you think?steemCreated with Sketch.

Once, three persons were proceeding to heaven in a
celestial vehicle which had come to collect them. On
their way, they chanced to behold a snake that was just
about to swallow its prey, a frog. One of the three
commented, “O serpent! Do you not have any
compassion for the frog? For heaven’s sake, spare its
life.” The irritated snake cursed, “How dare you deny me
my food? May you go to hell.” Sad to say, the man went
to hell.
The second man, who was bewildered on seeing this,
supported the snake’s stance and said, “The frog is but
your natural food. You can surely eat it.” Now, the frog
became wild and retorted, “How dare you suggest that I
be eaten! You have no kindness. May you suffer the
tortures of hell.” The man fell from the celestial vehicle.
The third man, who remained silent, reached heaven.
This story illustrates that, on certain occasions,
remaining silent is even better than speaking the truth.

Yeah Arguing every time is not good sometimes it is batter to remain silent

Yes it is a good story to think about, because on the other hand sometimes if we don't resist and speak out our minds the system we will end up controlling us and will take away our freedoms.
