There's something so peaceful about not talking and silence. It's not that I don't have anything to say; it's just freeing not having to share every thought that pops into my head. There's some sort of pleasure I get out of not being forced to make small talk, not forced to laugh at any stupid jokes, just to be quiet. It's a lot harder than it sounds living in this world where everyone needs to know what you're thinking and why. I feel like everyone's so caught up on expressing and sharing their "feelings" that suddenly you forget to actually experience them for yourself. You're forced to breath your emotions.
Why are people so frightened by silence? It's something I look forward to everyday. I feel with silence you get to actually experience things for what they are instead of listening to sound cues to judge what your reaction should be. When you're free of noise/sound suddenly everything seems so much louder.
