The most powerful people are the ones that are quiet, reserved, and highly observant.
The wisest beings will wait until they have something of meaning to contribute to the conversation.
When a silent person finally becomes vocal & outspoken, more people will listen.
This is where the power lies.
Author's Notes/Comments:
I realized this from my childhood and on. I was a quiet kid throughout school. Shy for the most part yet when I did speak more people seemed to look my way since it wasn't very often they heard me speak.
I feel the gift of saying the right words is one of the best gifts to acquire in time.
