I went thought cycles of being quiet in school, it never helped me not be a primary target though.

Just a reminder: under international law, an occupying power has no right of self-defense, and those who are occupied have the right and duty to liberate themselves by any means possible.
In the Quiet if you add being observant, to the physical people nearby, that can , " help you read the room" knowing when to absorb info. when to leave, when to respond / or listen. Being there or in a place of peers or others does not always mean,talking/ input is the best thing to do. Sometimes, I want to say something, that pertains to what has been said, and do miss the opportunity, because I was being too observant, ( read the room) but then I try to think, maybe my input was not meant to be,at particular point in time . And might feel stymied ,to be quiet. And sometimes that information, somehow might not be good for certain people to hear ? Who knows why. But it took along time to get to the place, where even if I hadnt spoke for awhile to another single human being? That my input maynot be a good or well timed thing . ![]()
