Thanks for reminding me of Thich Nhat Hahn's book on silence. Reading his words (in silence) always leads me to a deeper understanding. And a special thanks for sharing my words about silence. I do believe silence holds miracles--if we're willing to sit long enough or any amount of time. I appreciate your insight and wisdom.

Empathic and sensitive post. Silence is something I seek, but it can be impossible since I share a house with two people and there is no sound insulation. If I manage to wake up before everyone else, I'm gifted with the soothing energy of silence. Otherwise, the closest I've come to being able to the spaciousness of mental clarity and peace is when I play Mozart music for studying and relaxation.

Silence is so calming and gives us an opportunity to reflect and find inner peace. It soothes the soul.

I love silence. It is so rejuvenating. I used to be the person who had music playing at all times, especially in my car. In the past year or so I spend plenty of time in silence and truly enjoy it.
