@ucwhavok, At the end of the day, it’s just silence. I know that it is scary to face, but there’s no need to make it more difficult by stoking up the fires of fear and seeing silence as something more than it actually is: just silence.

The trick is to not get too jumpy about the thoughts that come to your head while silent. They’re just thoughts. They come and then they go, if you allow them to go. If you grab onto the thoughts as if they were attacking you and start trying to control them, then it’s not silence anymore. It becomes a pointless battle.

No need for all the drama…
