Most of us don't like silence because
it forces us to confront ourselves."
Dan Pedersen
Reality is difficult to face and accepting truth is challenging as well. We will go to great lengths to lose focus and distort the truth. This of course extends the inevitable and creates harm. Denial and avoidance postpones accountability and we will seek numerous forms of escape
Reluctant to embrace things as they are, we may become over indulgent in shopping, exercising, drinking or working. We keep surroundings loud and heighten social exchanges. Getting lost in other people's dilemmas occupies our thoughts. In our minds. we keep running to avoid the real world.
We may find ourselves unsettled without knowing what is triggering the unrest. Reality and truth begin to align when we take pause and simply breathe. It is in this space of stillness that we can face dilemma, hold ourselves accountable and determine a safe plan. Silence becomes a healthy and powerful tool to heal the body, mind, and soul.
