I can be at the sea shore and silently admire the sea waves. I can silently sit in the balcony with my morning cup of tea and hear the birds chirping. I can watch the expression of a person who is not able to talk and understand their thoughts too. Is it real silence? It is the silence which expresses so many emotions…
Silence is not complex. Silence can be most elegant when you are angry or you have nothing better to say. As they say, it is better to be quiet than to be a pessimistic. I have my angry moments too and I even talked about anger in one of my earlier posts. I do not deal with anger in silence. I can be totally vulnerable and its fine with me. Silence is not always golden and bottling up emotions is bad for your health too. I have learnt it the hard way but today I can bring out positivism even in anger. It needs practice and I have learnt to smile even in tough days. Smile in your pain, laugh so it will hurt less. Talk so you can vent out and be silly to stay young. This has become my motto in life..
As humans, we keep contemplating with our emotions and silence is something I’m deciphering today. You all deal with it too. We usually speak more when we are excited and happy. We tend to go silent when we are upset and angry. Then there are people like me who deal all the emotions with words. I’m a person of thousand words and silence is something which is only a feeling which I understand in others…
So, until I have more words to share about another emotion..
Keep smiling in silence.. 🙂
Love,
