Let sleeping dogs lie... words to live by...
You know the dogs out there and in here. Think dogs and metaphorical dogs.
So there is the thought you don't verbalize. The email or text you don't send. The phone call you don't make. The emotion that you let subside. The feeling you stifle. The action that just doesn't happen.
Dogs sleeping. Everywhere. Tread lightly. Stealth is wealth.
