Have u heard of a blind beggar who was begging at a street corner on a hot summers day?
Many people passed him by, not giving him even a penny
A man came by & read the placard near the beggar,it said:
"I am Blind"
The man rubbed it off & wrote something else & walked away
Soon the people passing by started showering coins in the beggars bowl
By evening the bowl was overflowing
The beggar heard the footsteps of the man who had stopped by earlier & called out
"what was it u wrote on my placard?"
The man replied,"I wrote the truth,so that all could realise it"
I wrote"Today is a beautiful day,you can see it---- but I can't"
So you see friends-- speaking the truth is the right thing,but speaking the truth so that people realise it too is more essential.
Communicating appriopriately should be developed,infact it is like "a sugar coated pill",wherein the bitter truth is subtely understood not hurting or hitting anyone in the eye thus maintaining the dignity of the reader & keeping our relationship open with him.
