There's much wisdom in what Mr. Buffett says. It brings to mind the words of St. James.... Jam 1:19:
"This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, SLOW TO SPEAK and slow to anger..."
It is true that whatever moves the heart wags the tongue. And so, we must keep our hearts with all diligence. But then, there are even good things that shouldn't necessarily be said. Someone remarked, "What is in the well of your heart will show up in the bucket of your speech." True enough, but we can refuse to 'let down' the bucket.
Forgive me, heavenly Father, for thinking I have to say something about everything. May my ears be more prominent than my mouth. Amen.
