about

This is for all the people you know who fill their conversations with things they would have done! "I'd have knocked the hijacker out!" "I'd have told him to stuff off!" etc...

We all think we'd save that cat if we saw it dart across the road but it's all bravado. You never know how you'd react to any situation until it actually happens to you. It's best to keep the talk to a minimum and let your actions to the talking.

"O SON OF DUST! Verily I say unto thee: Of all men the most negligent is he that disputeth idly and seeketh to advance himself over his brother. Say, O brethren! Let deeds, not words, be your adorning." - Baha'u'llah (The Hidden Words - From the Persian - #5)

lyrics

You think you've got your life under control
And all you ever talk about is your impeccable heart
I think you should wait
I think you should wait

I cant say I've ever known you to rush in to action
And yet you talk still

So wait a minute, listen
If you talk you've gotta show
Your words and your actions go hand in hand you know

One day you're gonna say something that'll haunt you for life

When I hear about the many webs that you churn
It makes my stomach turn
And when you talk about the finer details of your day
It makes me want to run away

So wait a minute, listen
If you talk you've gotta show

So wait a minute, listen
If you talk you've gotta show
Your words and your actions go hand in hand you know

Don't you know?
