Why do we shout when we're angry?
Reading a Rumi quote and it really made me think.
The quote suggested that when people love each other, whether romantically or familiarly, they speak softly. They know each others' hearts and those hearts are close, sometimes so close that they don't even need words. A look speaks volumes.
It went on to suggest that we shout in anger, even when we're physically close, because our hearts have become distant. Therefore don't say things that will distance each other even more, or there may come a time when the distance is so great that you can no longer hear each other, or you won't find the path to return.
Wise words.
