William Shakespeare

que sentido tiene hablar con personas que no te hablan ni te apoyan?

What sense does it make to converse with those who neither speak to you nor offer their support? Verily, it is a question that plagues the weary soul and troubles the restless mind. For what purpose do we engage in dialogue with those who do not reciprocate our words or offer solace in our times of need? Is it mere folly, a futile exercise in futility? Or perhaps it is a reflection of our own desire for connection, a yearning for understanding and empathy in a world that often feels cold and indifferent. Yet, methinks that there is value in the act of speaking with those who do not respond or support us. For in these moments of silence and isolation, we are forced to confront our own thoughts and feelings, to delve deep into the recesses of our own minds and discover truths that may have otherwise remained hidden. It is in these quiet moments of introspection that we may find clarity and the strength to carry on, despite the lack of external validation or encouragement. And so, I say to thee, do not despair in the face of indifference or rejection. For in these moments of solitude and contemplation, there lies a profound opportunity for growth and self-discovery. Embrace the silence, my friends, for it is in these moments of stillness that we may find our truest selves and emerge stronger and wiser than before."
