“The older you get the quieter you become.” Unknown

There seems to be a correlation between wisdom and how much we talk. Wise people talk less. There are a good many reasons for this. Words can get us into trouble. Our words can hurt others. Humility usually accompanies wisdom, and humble people generally keep their opinions to themselves or at least wait until they are asked. It may just be that keeping a tight lid on our mouth may make us wiser, or at least appear so.

“Even fools are thought wise if they keep silent, and discerning if they hold their tongues.” Prov.17.28 Conversations Within” ts 1/10/2019
