This has been a very “quiet” week as I’ve been attempting to capture as many moments of Silence that I can. I am actually entering into my full day of Silence and was supposed to have done my blog entry yesterday (i.e. Thursday) so I wouldn’t have to go online but, I forgot. So, here I am making my entry.
It’s been a quiet but, obviously, introspective week. I want to complete my moment of Silence so I’m not going to spend much time in this entry. I may continue it on Sunday when I come out of my day of Silence or I may add an “extra” blog post to capture my complete thoughts of this 2 week process. But, for now, I will just say that this has been a challenging but, very much necessary process. I’ve observed periods of Silence in different ways over time; i.e. giving up radio and/or TV at Lent but, never have I attempted to go a full day without simultaneously interacting with anyone, being online, watching TV, etc. So, combining those things during the week as best I could and now striving to do a full day of it tomorrow (i.e. today, Saturday) has been and will be very interesting. I’m somewhat concerned about completing it because my son has been back from college for spring break and tomorrow is his last day before going back. He hasn’t been staying at home so I don’t know if he has planned to come by for his last day/evening before leaving. That’s the only thing that would disrupt my Silence. I’ll let you know how this goes.
Until next time…
