Suitability is of utmost importance.

In all things we do, suitability is of utmost importance. The clothes we wear ought to suit the occassion. The speech we give should be right for the audience gathered. The words we use depends upon the language and the proficiency in the language of the people concerned. When a speech is not totally understood, it cannot expect to be appreciated. Neither should it be too simple if it is delivered to literary figures. It all boils down to suitability. Similarly, our actions and behaviour ought to suit the occassion. At times we can have brazen, bawdy jokes but there are times such jokes are unacceptable. The jokes have to be suitable.

Last night, I attended one new year party where one of the programmes was a display of talent by some musicians. The musicians did very well and even a music ignoramus like me could enjoy the songs, music and the showmanship of some of the talents. Unfortunately, most of the people present were out to renew friendships, exchange the latest news and enjoy each other's company. At one point, the chatter of the happy crowd almost drowned the music of the musicians. I rally felt sorry for them but then we cannot blame the great number of people who attended the gathering which was intended to be a coming together, a sort of unity function where they made the function a success by enthusiatically enjoyed the food and each other's presence with unbridled happiness. It is just that the musical programme was unsuitable for the event despite the great talents those young musicians displayed.

Well, suitability still is a factor which must be taken into account.
