Quiet

I've been trying so hard to capture quiet. But no matter what I do I can't. I can't successfully describe it in its full capacity. I can't experience it completely. Nor can I even begin to create it. My only successful attempts with anything surrounding silence have only been my admissions at failure. I am now leaning towards a belief that silence cannot be achieved in description through words. In fact, I believe I am participating in the opposite act. Writing I now see is one the noisiest acts. Quiet more than anything exists within our heads. Writing has been an activity that causes so much noise and clutter inside in my head. Although it may be perfectly quiet, devoid of sound in a place where one is writing, they still cannot achieve silence or quiet. I'm sure anyone reading this has experienced that. Instead to fully enjoy silence we must commit to free ourselves of any activity we are doing; mental or physical. I think now it's even counterproductive to try and seek quiet when its already around you. If it comes to you in silent and lapping waves its power is awesome. There really is nothing like quiet.
