Music— that enchanting disturbance of air— ripples through the cosmos, weaving harmonies that stir countless emotions. Its distant echoes flow through our very being, carrying us on a journey of bliss and transcendence.
Yet, music is not just sound.
Silence, too, is part of its essence. It is silence that gives depth to every note, meaning to every melody.
But how often do we truly listen to silence?
Silence is part of conversation, part of emptiness, yet we seldom acknowledge it. We rush through life, drowning in noise—of distractions, superficiality and the relentless chase of fleeting pursuits. In doing so, we overlook the quiet spaces where we might finally hear ourselves, where answers often reside.
But have we ever truly listened to silence?
No.
Why?
Because we fail to realize that silence is omnipresent. We do not recognize its existence.
Look up at the night sky. You see twinkling stars, fleeting meteors and drifting celestial rocks. But beyond them lies the vast emptiness, the boundless void. That is what silence looks like.
The cosmos is silence; silence is the cosmos.
Take a moment for yourself. Step away from the constant stream of notifications, the never-ending digital hum. Sit in stillness. Listen to the resonance of silence. You may just find the answers you’ve been searching for.
Silence speaks—if only we choose to hear it.
