Who remembers their mum saying, “If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all.”
In a world full of hate-speech, trolling and anonymous keyboard warriors, it sometimes feels as though the world would be a very quiet place if we all listened to our mums.
But I suspect that we don’t have to be quiet.
I suspect that there’s always something nice to say.
A word of encouragement.
An acknowledgement of a job well done.
A quick thank you.
A positive quote or motivational story.
A gentle prompting to keep going.
A prayer.
If you don’t have anything nice to say, you’re probably not trying hard enough to think of something.
