Silence—L

Have you ever decided to speak, but went against it because you know no one would listen?







Have you ever tried to make friends, but went against it, afraid you will be rejected?







I have and it hurts.







I used to think that I need to change my personality to make people to like me and maybe I would be able to make friends, to stop being shy and try a new personality, but this wasn’t the case. Life isn’t like that, it's not the same as we see in movies where people would like you if you change yourself and became what they want.







I began to speak less, to show myself less. I began to be silent.





Surprisingly, It wasn’t that bad. Silence isn't as bad as everyone thinks, I found peace. I found myself again and I began to like silence, I became more fond of my silent self. To not be able to care? To reply with silence when someone yells at you? To shut them with silence? How wonderful can that be! How powerful does that sound? To have that power and be able to be powerful, a different kind of power, but the kind that might last longer than the others. Being silent can be the key and the answer to a lot of things.
