Silent therapy

Silence therapy...


Sometimes it feels better not to talk. At all. About anything. To anyone. Silence is golden they say. It will hold you from speaking things that you can regret later on. And we all know,the worst thing that can happen is to yup aimlessly out of a haze of emotions and having to apologize later. On saying things and wishing you could get it off the tape.
Women speak about 10,000 words per day apparently but am not sure about that. What am learning however, is that waiting silently is one of the hardest disciplines one can develop. Lately, i have just been appreciating that the things we feel most deeply are what we ought to learn to be silent about atleast until we have talked over thoroughly with God.
Being quiet doesnt mean one is angry or sad,in most cases, silent treatment means seeking a higher mundane force(God) for clarity, affirmation, solace and direction.

Don't agonise over the *What's up* Q's.
Sometimes people keep silent because they just don't have the words to express the battle on their mind and heart. You may never understand even when you pat them on the shoulder and say *I get it*
Allow them to talk it over to the Lord and when time is right, they will loop you in depending the level of your interaction...

Yeah, silence is golden
