I've strangely thought about this alot.
Is it too scientific?
Or too philosophical?
All I have to say is that I've concluded this:
IF YOU HAVE NEVER HEARD SOUND, THERE IS NO SOUND TO SILENCE.
BUT IF YOU ONCE HEARD SOUND, AND LOST IT, I BELIEVE THAT THAT SILENCE IS IN FACT, STRIKINGLY DEAFENING.
OK, I know there is WAYYYY too much to catch up on things that have happened in the past 3 months that it's hard to know where to start. This just makes me put it off longer.
Thus, the commentary on silence.
I'm wondering if silence increases our patience?
ISNT THAT WHAT THIS IS ALL ABOUT ANYWAY?????
