S.I.L.E.N.C.E

Have you ever experienced a moment in your life when you just ran out of words
and you go .... s i l e n t ??
Let me assist you in recalling...
... the moment when you left home for the first time and you look back
at your parents who are worried that their son/daughter are
leaving them, yet happy that their child took the first step towards
independence...
... the moment when that girl/boy you like most ... smiled back at you!
You dont say anything ... just smile back ...
... the moment when you get better marks than you expected
those "numb" moments of ecstacy n surprise "is that true?" ...
... the moment when you are parting with your old friend(s)
and the train has just started
and you are standing at the door waving "good-bye"
with your heart beating fast...
... the moment after the HR manager has just called you and told you,
"You are through! Congrats!"...
... the moment when you sit alone in your room after having told
everyone that you cleared that exam you prepared for 6 months!!...
You can go on remembering your "special" moments!
I had always wondered why I never said anything to myself at those moments
..as if it was "understood" ...
happiness, joy, pain
... all feelings just flowed cleaselessly in the 'years' that passed in those flash moments!...
They say .. the best way to communicate is through "s i l e n c e"
Love.Joy.Grief.Surprise.Anger.Hope.Expectations.Support.
it is all ...
Ever had those moments when you thought you were tired enough
that you reach for your bed after dinner ...
but find yourself wide awake looking at the roof of your room silently ...
But you sure are 'thinking' ... those moments of self-talk are
the most important in our lives..
Those moments when we listen to our own hearts!
Those promises... those decisions... those are the moments when we make our destines! ...
Next time you go silent ...
listen carefully to what your heart is saying ...
listen to its joy... listen to its pain... listen to its fears... listen to its desires...
Dont make it shut up and go to sleep...
LISTEN TO THAT VOICE and ACCEPT EVERYTHING IT SAYS!
That voice can lead you to the abode of peace
that your sleep lacks... peace that awaits you!
Be in touch with your true self... be silent once a day, every day!
