"ارفع كلماتك لا صوتك. إن المطر هو الذي ينمي الزهور، لا الرعد."
— Rumi
Simplified Meaning:
When you want to get your point across, it's better to speak calmly and clearly than to yell or shout. Think of how rain helps flowers grow quietly, while thunder just makes a lot of noise without helping anything grow. For example, if you're in a disagreement with a friend, talking things out in a gentle and thoughtful way will help solve the problem better than if you raise your voice and get angry. Using kind and meaningful words can be more effective and will help maintain good relationships. Next time you're feeling frustrated or upset, remember that speaking thoughtfully can have a much stronger impact than speaking loudly.
