Anu, you are now fat o. Ah, Stella, when are you getting married? Tayo, so you have not gotten a job now. Femi, why are you still single? Kemi, this writing is not good at all! Amaka’s podcast is not even Interesting. πŸ™„πŸ™„

All of the above in whatever variations are not kind statements and I will rather term them rude and immature statements. It’s okay not to air an opinion about an issue or make remarks from things you see and hear.

People are going through a lot and it is important we spread as much love and laughter to go round instead of making snide and careless remarks.

I recently hear people body shame slim people. I only thought people of my statue that only get comments.

What do we even want? What can we do to the situation that genetics gave usπŸ€·β€β™€οΈ?

I hope this inspires you to keep quiet as a form of kindnessπŸ’œπŸ’‘.

Did you wish someone was quiet or wished you have been quiet?

Let me know in the comments section below πŸ‘‡

Comments to: Silence is a Form of Kindness

    This is so true, sometimes we need to be silent to be kind. I’ve made some comments that I sincerely wish I could take back because even though I meant no harm saying them, I could later see how inappropriate and unnecessary they were

      Exactly, Ade. Very correct. You wished those moments could be reversed and corrected.
