Listen To The Silence

Have you ever wished you could just have silence? No yelling, no noise, just silence. I think in our generation today it is impossible. when you have a group of people that your talking to and for a second no one is saying anything, there always seems to be some one who has to make noise, Otherwise it’s “awkward”. I know because I do this myself. There always has to be music in the background or some other kind of noise, even when we are sleeping we fall asleep to the TV or the radio. I really realized this when I was standing on the porch with my boyfriend. We weren’t talking and he says, “your not gonna talk, ok I will”. Inside my head I was screaming NO!!! you don’t have to talk just enjoy the silence!!!  We miss so much when we are talking, more then we know. Silence is golden, not awkward. Next time there is silence I challenge you to just listen, whether you are by yourself or with some one else. Take it all in use something besides your mouth for once. Just listen to the silence, it holds so much to be discovered.
