this weekend

I know most of my friends don't like it when I turn cryptic, but trust me (on the sunscreen). This one is for the road.

Lesson #1 learnt this weekend: Never underestimate the power of things that you say.

I know hangingbymoments has already learnt this lesson on her blog a while back - it's a feature of her writing that comes out quite a bit.

But yes, words have power. Things that you say, things that you ask. It is the only thing that connects us directly with a circumventing channel with a direct red-line access to the heart.

More and more now I believe that maturity is about knowing when to hold your tongue. As much as is knowing the right things to say at the right time, to get a desired result for greater good.
