Time for Silence

Even a fool, when he keeps silent, is considered wise; when he closes his lips, he is considered prudent.

Proverbs 17:28.

I had a job working in sales and one the best sales people told me that if I didn’t know the answer to a customer’s question to make something up.  I tried it and the customer caught me in my ignorance because it turned out that he knew more about the product than I did.  I looked stupid and felt stupid. 

The bliss of ignorance is best not shared.
