Silence

In Western culture, and it’s natural derivative of after-globalisation post industrial (digital) capitalism culture, the real art and value of silence is clearly absent; and the culture of emptiness is missing too.  

Well, of course—capitalism needs to sell, and you can’t sell emptiness.  

Everything has to be filled and filled again, more and more.

But the other side of this is forgotten: clutter.

Yet sometimes silence is more important than words.  

You need to know how to be silent, to love doing it, to master it. How to accept and deal with the emptiness and to understand when it is needed.

There is strength in this, its own kind of beauty.

In general, emptiness and minimalism have a much deeper potential in everything than filling, noise, and abundance.  

Personally, I try to be silent as much as possible; to feel that threshold when there’s no need to act, speak, or acquire anything.  

This is a profound essence.
