Marilah kita bersama - sama belajar untuk berbicara secara bijaksana

Having a conversation with one made me look at the “Wejangan Kehidupan” Siddharta Gotama calendar that I put on my working desk. It says:

Seseorang yang bijaksana,
Tidak akan menceritakan keburukan orang lain,
Sekalipun jika ia ditanya, apalagi jika tidak ditanya!
Namun, apabila ia perlu untuk berbicara,
Sepatutnya ia mengemukakan dengan hati-hati!
Inilah arti dari perkataan, “Orang tersebut bijaksana”

Selanjutnya, seseorang yang bijaksana,
Sekalipun tidak ditanya,
Ia akan menceritakan kebaikan orang lain,
Namun jika ditanya ia perlu untuk berbicara,
Sepatutnya ia memuji kebaikan orang lain tersebut,
Dengan terus terang, tanpa keraguan dan jelas!
Inilah arti dari perkataan, “Orang tersebut bijaksana”

That wejangan is more telling us not to tell REAL bad things (in my understanding) about ones.

How it asks us to be wise in telling things.

Have you ever thought of you, telling bad things about ones and it turned out not real?

Sometimes we call it gossips or negative thinking if I might say. Right?

How could someone say about their negative thinking over someone before it happens?

How could someone have the heart to think negatively of their friends (that in my understanding he probably has known his friends after a number of chats and hanging-outs (more than two I suppose?)?

How could someone say about their judgements over another person before knowing deeply about that person?

Why am I asking these questions?

Why do we have to be wise?

Why am I suggesting you and me to talk wisely?

Who am I?
Why am I bothered?

Why do I still keep asking questions?
