Mussar | A Lesson On Silence

In Mussar | A Lesson On Silence we will learn, like many people, I was raised with the idea that if you mean well, whatever you say is ok. Mussar teaches that this is not the case. Rather, we need to consider the impact of our words. If we hurt someone else with our speech, good intentions do not absolve us of our responsibility to make it right. We have already seen this concept when we were practicing Truth. Just because it is true doesn’t mean that we have a right to say it, especially if the words will hurt another without any discernible benefit to the world.
