Has the concept ‘Cone of Silence’ ever been introduced into peoples lives and what is it?
Today, in our world, there is sooo much ‘Babble’---- non-stop chattering and noise in our lives that if we would be cast into total silence we wouldn’t know what to do with ourselves! Most of us, anyways!
What with cell phones and whatnot we have 24/7 ‘noise’.
Our common space is surrounded and encroached upon by a stream of sound that is never-ending ---- so that the opportunity for contemplation, reflection and deliberation is vastly diminished and nowadays, I don’t know whether most people would know what the words above really mean and that is a shame.
We have soo much potential inside of ourselves ----- knowledge that we are not even aware of ---- insight in ourselves that could and would be of help in many instances, BUT when do we take the time anymore? Are we scared of silence because we have never really been without ’noise’? Are we afraid that being by ourselves, hearing ourselves is going to bring things to us that we don’t want to have to deal with?
Having a Positive life with Positive Thinking going on with us can only happen when we can be O.K. with ourselves. So many Negative things happen in our lives because we just don’t want to ‘go there’ wherever ‘there’ is.
Get to really know oneself ---- learn to be in ‘silence’ even with all the noise ---- not shut off ---- just aware that you can control what ‘noise’ you want to surround you.
Take time to reflect upon your life and what Path you want to be on ----- Positive Thinking or Negative Thinking ---- and can you sit quietly and not have One thing going! Let me tell you from experience that it is a wonderful thing! Silence can actually be very ‘loud’, but when you learn to let it surround you with ‘quiet’ it can be very calming! And that will have a very Positive affect on your Thinking and where you really want to be in your life!
