Right time Quote by Anonymous
“When I stay quiet, it doesn't mean I've nothing to say. It means I don't think you're ready to hear my words. Sometimes we will hold back because those we want to reach outà to are not ready to give us the time or attention we need duringà our tough times. We stay silent and wait for the right time and hopeà that those we need to speak to will notice and give us that time.”
