Silence

This forward came to me exactly at the time I needed it the most.

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!!


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..



Don't make it shut up and go off to sleep...

LISTEN TO THAT VOICE and ACCEPT EVERYTHING IT SAYS!

That voice alone 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!

Hi HDWK,

Whatever I have read on your blog says that you generally wudnt need this reminder. Poetic people like you listen to their hearts all the time.
isnt it true ?


Hi Ekta,

Thanx a lot. Yes, I got this forward at a very right time and hence it is here.
People who foget to listen, the heart generally stops saying something to them also.
