Silence is not emptiness. It is not boredom and not a pause before something important. It is the moment when you finally hear not only the world around you, but also yourself. Here you are sitting in the morning silence, drinking tea, and suddenly you notice how beautifully the sun plays on the cup. Or you go outside in the evening, and there is no sound around, only the soft light of lanterns and warm air, saturated with the smell of the night.
And then the heart begins to beat faster. Because it is in silence that we feel the present: the look of a loved one, the touch of a breeze, the peace within ourselves. Noise distracts, but silence paints reality in the deepest and most vivid colors.
Who said that brightness is only the hustle and bustle and lights of a metropolis? Sometimes the most beautiful moment is when the whole world falls silent, and you suddenly realize: here it is, happiness. 💙
