When has your tongue let you down?

We don't see each other as we live in different countries now. But I wonder if they ever mention it. I don't know if she ever told him what I said (he was not present for the incident). We do in our family because when it came out of my mouth I could not believe what I'd said and I was screaming inside but just carried on like I'd said nothing 🤣🤣 I felt like a rash teenager again lol. I learnt a lesson to slow down. I felt so bad but we just crack up about it now as the guy was a bit of a character. It's a lesson that will stay with me! 😄

In my defence, I had just given birth, so hormones all over the place and my tolerance for BS was very low.

if we are mindful of our words, we may create from our hearts

Controlling our words is often a bit complicated, but silence certainly saves us a lot of problems.

Some say you should say as little as necessary

This is why I chant 108*16 every morning rounds of the Maha-Mantra:
HARE KRISHNA HARE KRISHNA KRISHNA KRISHNA HARE KRISHNA HARE RAMA HARE RAMA RAMA RAMA HARE RAMA
Because these are sacred names of the Supreme Godhead and by saying them I am in contact with God directly and my mouth that has been full of nonsense is released from this bondage after completing 1728 rounds there is absolute silence in my mind. I feel fresh and there are no commercials, politics, jingles, songs or even angry, fearful or craving desires. Just calm silence. Throughout the day I can recharge with a few rounds. Upon waking in the morning at 4:00 I do basic hygiene and I look forward to my day by starting this way.
Sat is truth Chit is mindfulness Ananda is bliss.
There's a reason Satoshi chose the name as an embodied version of truth.
This is why Bitcoin wakes people beyond... Way beyond money.
