一場與和諧的交易?

Better keep silent, stay blind and thoughtless.

以和諧的名義,

我們選擇不說出我們的想法,以避免衝突。我們開始變得沈默、無話可說。

我們放棄權力說出正確的話,以避免分歧。我們開始變得無能為力,失去想法。

我們忽視了正義,事實等其他重要的價值,以便在更大的群體中保持歸屬感。我們開始變得盲目。

和諧對一個社會或組織來說是寶貴的資產與基礎,和諧在某些文化中尤其具有其價值,但我們不應該因此忽略它也可能成為惡意人士以和諧之名行使操縱民眾之實的煙霧彈。

值得思考的問題:
*你是否曾為了維持和諧而放棄自己的想法?

*你知道你為了保持表面的和諧而放棄了什麼嗎? 

*在個人或社會層面上,您認為是否有其他比和諧更重要的價值?

In the name of harmony, we don’t say what we think, in order to avoid conflict. We become silent, speechless. We give away power to speak up the right thing, in order to avoid disagreement. We become impotent, lack of thoughts.
We neglect there are other important value such as justice, truth, in order to remain sense of belongings among greater group. We become blind. 

Harmony is a precious asset and foundation for a society or organization. It is especially valuable in certain cultures. And yet, we should not ignore that it could also become smoke bombs utilized by malicious party to manipulate the people in the name of harmony.

Food for thoughts: 

* Have you ever given up your thoughts in the name of maintaining harmony?  * Do you know exactly what you give up in order to maintain superficial harmony?  * On a personal or societal level, do you think that there are other values higher than the value of harmony?
