Simplified Meaning:
When you're talking with someone, knowing when to stay quiet can be very powerful. It's important to listen carefully and give the other person a chance to share their thoughts and feelings. Imagine you're talking with a friend who had a tough day. If you keep talking without letting them speak, they won't feel heard or understood. But if you pause and let them talk, they get the support they need, and the conversation becomes meaningful. In daily life, this means valuing the moments of silence in a conversation as much as the talking parts. It shows respect and helps build stronger connections with others.
