Thanks Willow for you’re comment.
The thing about silence,at least for me, is that it connects my mind and body and allows me to see that nothing really matters too much …it’s all impermanent.

I love the discourse here.-

I get this. I wish I didn’t. You bring things out that most of us won’t express. Thank you for sharing, Peter.

Thanks Alexandria for your comment.
Unfortunately, for those prone to self reflection, we are acutely aware of the five remembrances of Buddhism.
Just in case you have forgotten them….I am of the nature to grow old.
There is no way to escape growing old.I am of the nature to have ill-health.
There is no way to escape having ill-health.I am of the nature to die.
There is no way to escape death.All that is dear to me and everyone I love are of the nature to change.
There is no way to escape being separated from them.My actions are my only true belongings.
I cannot escape the consequences of my actions.
My actions are the ground on which I stand.

Silence is the strangest thing. I crave it, chase it…& then panic when I bump into it. Sometimes we have to force ourselves to sit still with it. Chaos is more familiar…& therefore sometimes…more comfortable.
