Sounds of silence



Silence teaches you many things.

It teaches you how to listen and how to hear.
It teaches you how to see things from different angle.
It teaches you how to re-think and re-consider.
It teaches you how to control your emotions and be patient.
It teaches you how to feel and how to translate in to words what you are feeling.
When you can’t translate what you are feeling, silence allows you to go deeper into yourself and find the peace that surpasses understanding. A peace that enables you to move forward, even when you don’t understand.

Most of the time, silence is a good thing.

But there are those times and circumstances when silence will kill you.

A killing silence can destroy your identity and your spirit.
It can kill your heart and your soul; when silence is used to stay in phase “I don’t care anymore”, “don’t bother”, “go to h***”.
It will murder your sense of worth; when silence is used as a means of avoiding something you know you must deal with.
It might change your sense of love, you sense of life; when you keep telling yourself that silence is the best way to keep you hanging, instead of living with it.
It may destroy your inner self; when silence is used to hide the truth, to avoid the truth, or to color the truth. And when you let it happens, it is the same as saying that the truth doesn’t matter. It demonstrates your belief that people who tell the truth don’t matter. But they do.

So which one do u prefer?
The choice is yours. =)
