SILENCE

Silence is uncomfortable. The moment music stops or your phone runs out of charge, the absence feels heavy. We rush to fill it—scrolling, talking, distracting. But silence is not emptiness. It is space. It is where your thoughts stop colliding with the noise of the world and finally make sense. In silence, you hear the things you’ve been avoiding: the fears you bury, the dreams you ignore, the truths you resist. That’s why it feels threatening at first. But stay with it. Five minutes of no noise, no screen, no conversation can feel like an eternity. Over time, it becomes a sanctuary. You don’t need to meditate perfectly or escape to the mountains. Simply pause. Turn everything off. Sit with yourself. The discomfort will pass, clarity will arrive. Silence doesn’t demand anything from you. It only offers perspective.
