The Burden Of The Tongue

"I just completed the story. The way you explained human nature. The way you talked about the power of words is astonishing. This is very relatable for me, as I have experienced such things in my life. The moments where you don't know what to say or what not to say. And it is indeed true that all we know is that we know nothing. Sometimes our heart and mind comprehend that "speaking" will save us. We, in our imagination, think that if we say this, the outcome will be good. We, according to our personality, think that these words won't hurt. But the reality is far different. I have said this one sentence in my life: "All of us know the truth, the only thing stopping us from believing it is our hypocrisy." And now something tells me that this novel proves it. I also understood one thing. Words don't hurt. The moment and the place where they are spoken do. So, this novel and story is not just a story. But the reality of human nature. Which little seems to comprehend."
