Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes in life, we come across situations where we must choose a side or hold an opinion. If a person is unable to decide or is afraid to pick a side, it’s better for them to stay quiet. This is because speaking without having a clear stance can create confusion or make things worse. For example, in a group project where team members disagree, taking a clear position can help resolve the conflict, while staying neutral or voicing a mixed message without a firm viewpoint can lead to more arguments and disorganization. So, if you don’t wish to choose a side, it’s often wiser to listen rather than talk. This way, you don’t add to the problem or create misunderstandings.
