Raise your words, not voice. It is rain that grows flowers

Raise your words, not voice. It is rain that grows flowers, not thunder

This quote, attributed to the poet Rumi, is a beautiful reminder of the power of gentle communication and the impact it can have on others.

When we communicate with others, it's important to remember that our words have the potential to either nourish or harm, just like rain can either help or damage flowers. By choosing to speak softly and calmly, we can create an environment of respect and understanding, rather than one of hostility and aggression.

Raising our words instead of our voice means communicating with patience, empathy, and understanding. It means listening actively to the other person's perspective, acknowledging their feelings, and responding in a way that demonstrates our desire to work together to find a solution.

By speaking in this way, we can encourage others to do the same, and create a positive feedback loop where everyone feels heard and valued. And just like the rain that nourishes the flowers, this kind of communication can help relationships and communities to grow and flourish.
