A Vow of Silence
[in a stream of consciousness and slightly paranoid and exaggerated kind of way]
Nobody notices until it’s inevitable. Until I am needed to please them, to serve their purposes.
Then everybody wants to know why. They demand knowing the reason as if they have the right to.
They feel impatient, angry, exasperated. They don’t realise that it is not important why things happen, because it belongs to the past. One should only think about the present and wait patiently for the future. One should never dwell upon the past.
I learn that we shouldn’t ask so many questions. We should never ask a question unless we are completely sure that we are prepared to know the answer.
I learn that the human being has lost the capacity to communicate properly without the use of words. I learn that the human race will never be able to reach an appropriate level of agreement and cooperation. I learn that we have a massive flaw as living beings.
They can’t see beyond their interests. They are unable to understand one’s feelings and reasons. They get angry and hurt.
I learn that meditation is precious and that motivation leads you a step closer to higher self-esteem.
I learn that we should observe each other more often and touch each other more often. I learn that we tend to lose a great deal of information by reducing communication to mere words.
I learn something about myself. I learn that I am too selfish to break my vow in order to help a friend.
I learn that we shouldn’t talk so much. I learn that people probably consider being silent such a difficult task because they worry too much about talking instead of listening.
I learn that self-control is the key to success and that frustration is the key to failure.
I learn that silence brings peace.

Joaninha... Não me leves a mal! Se bem me lembro, logo no inicio do post diz que isto está escrito de uma forma ligeiramente paranóica e exagerada =P Esta "experiencia" fez-me tirar algumas conclusões, mas por vezes sinto necessidade de exagerar os meus próprios sentimentos para os conseguir exprimir por escrito. No fim, ao reler, senti que tinha sido injusta e egoísta em muitos aspectos, e foi por essa razão que acrescentei a nota no início.
Não pensei que tivesses deixado de falar comigo na net por vontade tua (no início até pensei, mas depois quando continuaste a não responder, achei que era a minha net que estava com problemas =P) Nunca em algum momento duvidei da tua amizade. Ontem queria falar-te do que me tinha deixado triste, mas de certeza que vou ter outra oportunidade para o fazer.
Adoro-te... E fiquei muito tocada com as coisas que disseste aqui. Só não sei por que raio é que te estou a responder no blog... LoL Assim todo o mundo fica a saber ^^
