Loudness is gaudy…overwhelming at times when overdone but if you drown yourself in silence…even the silence can crush you…
Silence can be as illusive as loudness. Too much of silence is a violence in itself….it kills by lack of sound, lack of life.
Silence is a response….a violent response to unanswerable loudness.
Loudness cannot be fought by more loudness…it becomes chaos. If you really want peace…use the violence of silence…it is a lethal tool….too vague to fight against.
I have never seen loudness win over silence. Every act of loudness consumes great lot of energy. As the energy exhausts, loudness wanes off. And what is left to the eternity? Silence.
When I found this…it was frightening…but more you start ruling the silence it starts obeying you. It is a tool...keep it a tool.
