Silence

How easilly one can be misuderstood? At a wink of an eye.

Although it was not my intention to defend S and in turn attacked Audrey; some how it has been interpreted that what I wrote to S was to put Audrey in a bad light.

I only wanted to offer an option to read the thank you message and to explore the different methods in writing English. I am not saying that I am right and Audrey is wrong. I just want to inform S that context determines the content. One need not have to hold on tight to a strict interpretation of a particular word but rather look at how and where the word is used. Examine the situations under which a word is used.

I have chosen not to reply Audrey and let the matter rest. For I see it is pointless to start an argument or to apologize because I don't think I have done wrong. Audrey is also trying to state a point although she did attack me on a personal level and said I was childish.

Mr. Campbell Sir, I agree with you totally how some people don't understand what a metaphor is and equate metaphor to a lie. Bless you, Sir. Bless your good heart and keen mind.

But that is how some people are and if I can't convince them then just let them be. I just have to find my right audience.

Sometimes silence is the best reply one can give.

Ciao.
