Sometimes the best response is silence or a smile.

Silence and a Smile

"Always remember: Silence and smile are two very powerful tools. Smile is the way to solve many problems. Silence is the way to avoid many problems." Paulo Coelho

It's political season, I'm putting these two tools to work whenever politics come up.

A smile is always an excellent answer, and is understood in any language. It shows support, recognition, and encouragement. But silence may not be the best answer. Asking: "Are you sure?" "Is that the best solution?" and then smiling and saying," "Take your time deciding," is better than silence. It shows support and concern while avoiding an argument.

Have a great week.
