I Am A Quiet Observer

I wish I wasn't quite so quiet, meek and mild. However, being forceful doesn't seem to gain you much, either- unless you have a good amount of charisma, etc. I have kindness...

I think I prefer being considerate, being quiet, and soaking things in. I think it makes me more pleasant and teaches me more, than bowling people over. However much it may be a disservice to myself.

I`m never sure
In general I take the view if I have nothing to say then I won`t flap my gums
I`ve found it quite scary how many people get unsettled if there is a little silence and view someone that doesn`t flap thier gums at every oppurtunity as wierd

Reflection and kindness will make you a more pleasant person to know and that is more important than anything you may lose through your meekness.

How many people know the phrase
"It`s the quiet ones you need to watch"
WHY?

Maybe because they gather the information that can hurt you, when reflected back? Very occasionally, I get fed up- and reflect peoples faults back at themselves- rather than take more abuse. TBH, I always feel bad about it, because it's the stuff people know about themselves but don't want to face.

Maybe because you don't know what they are thinking whereas louder people just tell everything (well not everything). Perhaps passive aggression may be behind this phrase too. Not sure.
