Mussar: is Your Timing Correct?

Pirkei Avot 4:23
Rabbi Shimon ben Elazar says:
Do not appease your fellow in the time of his anger; do not console him while his dead lies before him

Possible Parallel:

4. Is it the right time?
Is it the right time for you? What are your emotions right now? For example, are you speaking from anger, from hurt or from concern?
Is it the right time for the other person? What is their state of mind? Are they paying attention?
 
Kol Tuv,
RRW
