Silent - Read this - Its Amazing

Views 30 Views    Comments 6 Comments    Share Share    Posted by Rajesh 14-11-2008  
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 your 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 the girl/boy you like most.. smiled back at you!

You don`t say anything.. you just smile back..




..... the moment when you get better marks than you expected... those

"numb" moments of ecstasy 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 on the door of the

wagon.. waving "bye-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 ceaselessly in the `years` that passed in those

flash moments!


They say.. the best way to communicate is through "silence".

Love. Joy. Grief. Surprise. Anger. Hope. Expectations. Support.

Non-cooperation...



Can you imagine the importance of a silent moment in a song??

When Bryan Adams stops for a while along with music, before he goes

on in his husky voice...

..... Please forgive me. I can`t stop loving you!


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 destinies!



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..

and Be in touch with your true self...

I worked as an Adventure Sports Instructor at one point, we always knew when the group had had a good adventure...they`d be quiet all the way home.

To the Japanese Art is Mah..the space between things, lines on a page or the notes of music. The Ah! moment.

Hey!!!! seriously no words to express!

I am silent but pondering on how true it is, in times like this "silence is more powerful than words".
Neil, you are absoultely right, music is one thing where it can take you back in your good or bad memories and you are silent just being happy or sad...

Great this one is really good.

true

Silence automatically blends in whenever there is a complete sense of achievement (towards anything), a deep sense of love, a feeling of belonging or calmness, a moment of peace.

even Eckart Tolle says it beautifully in his book "Stillness Speaks"

Thanks for the reminder!

This really is a good piece of an article. It is simply real.....the moments of silence in our lives actually make us speak more of those momets....but still that particular moment of ecstacy or whatever feeling...just chooses "silence"....

Very real and very true. My thumbs up for this one.....!!
