Silence

Silence is dying easily, upheld with vigorous effort to wander.

#1: At last the truth be spoken without impediment, and so it continues, not as armchair-bound pronouncement, but through rivers forded and mountains climbed, wherever the journey may lead. Per ardua ad altiora!

#2: Silence is making a concious effort to die. Silence seems to find little opposition to the notion as Silence itself reiterates its desire for self termination by wandering into non-silence by vigorous effort.

We are left to ponder the nature of non-silence. Is it noise? Is it music? Is it random fluctuations in pressure waves propogating through the atmosphere? Or is it something else, a mere absence of non-perception of the indefinable?

#3: The exquisite silence was evidently waiting for the exquisite voice, that presently not so much broke as mingled with it, like a swan swimming through a lake. - The Quest of the Golden Girl by le Gallienne, Richard
