Silence is golden

Silence is something that people often struggle with. We spend our lives surrounded by noise – listening to the radio in the car, having the TV on in the background at home. When we chat to people and there is a lull in a conversation, we can be uncomfortable with the silence and try to fill it. Sometimes though, I like just to sit quietly and not feel the need to have to talk. It doesn’t mean I’m sulking, or in a bad mood, or being uncommunicative. I’m just enjoying a moment of stillness away from all the hustle and bustle.
