Last night a coworker ask me if I was hot with my fleece on while working. Instantly I replied negatively. After thinking about her question, I realized I was warmer than usual (although usual happens to be icey). She asked if I think before I answer or if I say the first thing that comes to mind.
How often do I, or do you just answer? Without thinking, processing, wisely considering?
Often, no harm no foul.
Sometimes; damage is done. Often due to careless words.
Wisdom is not in the speediness of the answer, but in the thought---the careful preparation of words.
