Keeping Quiet
Here’s another diary entry of the ordinary girl. Lets read it together..
| Dear Diary, Well from the unreasoned happiness I am now struck with silence. It strange how sometimes you can go from chirping bird to being extremely silent. To people I might be silent soul but with my friends i am a chatterbox but I don’t forget to visit my silence. Introspection at times?? May be or May be not… So what made me go quiet today? Nothing exactly.. I just didn’t feel like talking much. Just staying quiet and listening others blabbering (Good listener traits! 😛 ) No, nothing going on in my mind about anything, nothing making me sad, its just keeping quiet. And it has totally got nothing to do with showing anger to anyone (the technique we usually follow to let others know that they did something wrong!!) One of those moments with blank mind thinking nothing. Although it happens sometimes that this silence leads me to the other phase of me- overthinking that is, but for now its just blank. There were times when the teachers in class kept shouting- Keep Quiet! But now, I don’t know why does so many questions pop-up if I go quiet for a day! As if the hell broke loose. May be just because friends care and can’t stand the silence. But sometimes I just don’t want to fill the talks with the words but let the silence speak. Or is keeping quiet testing who understands me without words like if you can’t understand my silence you won’t understand my words or because at times, Meaningful silence is better than Meaningless chatter, isn’t it? But one thing I don’t get about silence is- Silence is said to be golden, still it hurts! Silence is said to be the best answer yet no one understands it! Can’t you hear Ordinary “Quiet” Girl. |
Do you often go silent for no reason? What are your reasons for keeping quiet!

Exactly!
The very first sentence of my book says “The silence is deafening.” That kind if says it all, agree? ha ha

Agreed Carol! 🙂
Silence is the best at times ; but that’s also one of the most misunderstood emotions !!
Exactly, hardly are there people who understand your silence!
Silence speaks louder than words…true friends can hear our thoughts, telepathy 🙂 Lovely post.
Yes True friends know us better than ourselves. Thanks Sulekha 🙂
I have some quiet days… when nothing I say makes sense… so I just shut up 🙂
Hehe!! Yah Silence is Golden!! 😛
Poetry in the end is so beautiful. And I must tell you this- 80% of your diary seems like my life! I can so well relate to these expressions and emotions! Probably there are many others other than me! 🙂
I’m so glad that you could relate to this ordinary girl 🙂
