Actions speak louder than words...?
First day of Quarantine today.. Having 3 days of holidays before that, i am actually getting restless and bored at home.. Unable to go out makes it worse cause its really very bored.. Trust me, my temper will burst sooner or later.. ): Had a random thought as i was bathing just now..Not sure if its right, but i was just wondering.. Since words without actions are empty promises (or crap), and actions without words may cause misunderstandings, doesn't it make both words and actions equally important? Hmmm.. like i said, when there is only words, they are just empty promises and blanks that carry no meaning at all.. At the end of the day, how true can those words be? It can just be words that come out today, and forgotten tomorrow.. something like lies.. yea? Serve no meaning and purpose at all, in the end, it may even hurt those who keep the words in their hearts. But then, if there is only actions, and people don't actually understand the actions, it is as good as not doing anything, cause the agenda is not clear. Its like.. you are wasting your effort because people don't understand the reason of you doing certain things, and don't see why you should do certain things. It may even not be appreciated because of the lack of knowledge people have for each other, especially the way we wana care for one another. However, if both words and actions complement each other, there is assurance. Actions will not be meaningless and words will not be purposeless. Actions shows things we do and words helps us to explain why we are doing that particular action(s).. Or rather, if people do certain things and tell us why they are doing them, it will be so much easier for us to understand the reason behind it.. Actions with reassurance brings us to a place where we feel secure bahs.. i don know.. Just feel that Words brings assurance to actions and Actions brings reassurance to the words that have been spoken.. hahas. As i was thinking about this, i realised that there are many who are not consistent in the things that they say and the way that they act.. Not pin-pointing anyone, cause i am like that myself too.. Most of the time.. Something i need to change.... Probably, instead of saying Action speaks louder than Word, I would just act and say out the reason(s) for things. hahas.... iDestinee. |
