I usually always have something to say! To comment on etc. And it's usually because some I've come across some article, witness some event or that I've been motivated to by some experience. In trying to come up with my next blog post I found myself with a touch of 'writer's block'. There is plenty to blog about but I can't think where to begin. Because you see everything I usually share here is something that has 'stirred' me both in my heart and my mind. While there are number of helpful topics I could write about in this post none 'grab' me just now. My mother and other adults I ever came across in my life have always taught me if you haven't anything good to say about anything or anyone it is better to keep quiet. I think it is good advice and I have followed it my whole life. However, it isn't the situation that I only write about something or someone when I want to say something 'bad' or negative about them. I just haven't anything to blog about right now that's all. So with that said I thought it would be nice to share with you this poem by Shalom Freedman:
When there is nothing to say
Try to say something,
For Nothing is only Nothing
And saying it will not help-
Saying something may give meaning to life
Even if what one says is not of great significance-
Saying nothing gives nothing
Saying this little something then
Is another small attempt at giving life meaning-
It may be nothing really and nothing in the end and after all
But for now it is a little something
And a little something is better than nothing
Sometimes maybe even now-
Try to say something,
For Nothing is only Nothing
And saying it will not help-
Saying something may give meaning to life
Even if what one says is not of great significance-
Saying nothing gives nothing
Saying this little something then
Is another small attempt at giving life meaning-
It may be nothing really and nothing in the end and after all
But for now it is a little something
And a little something is better than nothing
Sometimes maybe even now-
And so by sharing the above I share my something which is really nothing and probably not very useful to you at all today. Except to say if I am going to say something I will also add that it's never useless to say to you today, I hope you're well. That today you have had a reason to smile. To wish you well and say most importantly.....
Stay beyoutiful bigYoutifuls!
