This new age diplomacy comes as a double edged sword, because it does not always support the truth. So, you may end up trying to make a person happy by saying what makes them feel good but may be not so truthful.
But we forget that people can sense energies
of words too. And so, they may see through the white lie and end up feeling not
so good , after all. And there could be a little distancing thereafter. And diplomacy could have failed to achieve
its goal.
I really have never seen the point here.
There is something about being false that comes through, however hard you try
to mask it , or even succeed in making it an art. Even that is temporary. It
will show through ultimately.
So, if truth may hurt, better silence than
“diplomacy” which could become the most undiplomatic thing you could have done
!
