You will be amazed at what can be achieved by allowing things the time and space to breathe.
What is the least you can say to express that which needs to be said?
What is the least you can do to achieve what needs to be done?
Not all that can be done or said needs to be done or said. Not all space has to be filled.
There are times when saying less, doing less will prove to be the best course of action. Even if saying or doing less than you could does not come naturally to you, the results will likely please, delight, or even amaze.
You don’t have to fill all the space.
You don’t have to say everything in a conversation. You don’t have to express every thought that springs into your mind. As the timeless cliché suggests, less is so very often more.
You can always allow space for it to breathe. For you to breathe. For the other person to breathe.
You don’t have to carry all the weight, all the time.
You don’t have to fill all the space.
Less can be more.
May you be nothing but kind today, to others and to yourself.
May today be nothing but kind to you and yours.
