Sometimes silence can be quite expressive..
If u did not get wht i mean, try recollecting all those times in life whn all u had with u was silence and yet u felt understood...felt heard.
If u cant relate to this, thn all i got to say is u must be really lucky! :)
Sometimes these silent moments can speak volumes...and at times the situation is such tht all we are left to communicate with is this silence.
Yet it seems satisfying..cos somewhere we like to stay in the comfort tht nothing is being said..tht our thoughts arnt being read...and we r too afraid tht breaking the ice may juss break the bond...the bond wch is formed between two silent souls trying to gauge each others thoughts.
But juss as we begin to start seeking comfort amidst the silence, it suddenly starts becoming loud...it starts gettin deafening without a single word being exchanged.
Misinterpretations, misunderstandings surface up and we are left with this calm silence breaking loose and creating chaos in our heads and in our lives...
and thts whn we yearn for a spoken word...
a spoken word wch can confirm our interpretations...
a spoken word wch can break the melancholy of the silence wch has suddenly turned eerie and cold...
a spoken word wch can soothen out the chaos the once comforting silence has now transformed into.
and thts when we wonder wht exactly is more real..which exactly should we believe...the expressive silence or the deafening noise it has created?
Would we ever dare to disturb the "sounds of silence"???
the best thing in the world.. sound of silence..
ReplyDeleteits so nice to b alone just with urself at times.. it gives such a peace of mind.. bliss

@ keshi
yess keshi...i know wht u mean.
its a weird thing---this silence..u juss gotta interpret it right and tht perhaps is the most difficult thing..a simple conversation is soo much easier sometimes :)
@ blog boy
hmm u talkin about a "positive silence" blogboy...there words are not needed to express wht u feel...
thrs somethin called a "negative silence" too wherein u keep longing for unspoken words wch are never uttered and wch would make all the difference if they are :)
silence is a powerful tool... it can convey a lot without a word being said.. so use it efficiently!! :)
ReplyDeletePriyanka thanks for visitn my blog gurl!
ReplyDeleteSilence is killing at times..Ask me and i can rant about it so much.Nicely written!
Very welll said. Silence at time is speaking millions of words. And this is the best thing to heal the anger and the pain.
ReplyDeleteFew silent moments with self can cast a magic spell on our internal being.

yes .i agree, sometimes silence can tk the place of a million words...but thn whn u r done with the million words, u tend to miss the unspoken and hate the silence! :)
i agree pri.. many a times despite knowing it all.. you need to hear that spoken word... it's kinda comforting and reassuring!!
