"Old Saying Tells To Get To The Point" by Susan Pearl

Stop beating around the bush.

In my opinion this old saying is telling us to get to the point and stop skirting around the issue.  It is telling that enough time has been given to talk about the matter at hand and if that matter hasn't been mentioned but everything else has been talked about it is time to stop what is being done because it is time to address the real issue. If it hasn't gotten to the point by now it is time stop and move on to another way that will get to the point.  No more stalling and talking about what is not the point, not the real issue at hand and no more time given to unimportant sidestepping of what is really the subject that needs to be addressed.
