There are moments when you don’t feel like talking. You don’t feel like explaining, justifying, or proving something. You just want to be. In silence. And that’s absolutely normal.

I used to think that being silent was a weakness. That if I didn’t answer, didn’t participate, didn’t explain, then I was losing. But then I noticed: it was in silence that I heard myself the loudest.

Silence is a way to stop the noise of the outside world. It’s a moment when you can finally feel what you really want, without other people’s expectations and pressure. It’s a pause that heals.

I’ve learned to appreciate the moments when you can be silent - without embarrassment, without explanations. Take a walk alone, turn off the music, don’t respond to messages instantly. It’s not an escape. It’s a return to yourself.

In a world that constantly demands something, silence is an act of inner freedom.
