Silence

Silence.

The most peaceful sound is silence. It is calm. Pure silence is the sound of happiness.

I had taken a trip to Holmes Chapel, England and was met by the most beautiful experience I have encountered in my life. I was lying in a field with nothing but my thoughts. The aesthetic of a cloudy day surrounded by greenery is the most beautiful combination that can be met by the eye. The dark background highlights the forest green trees while giving off a dark but peaceful vibe.

I was in complete shock the whole time, falling in love with the silence. The temperature was perfect for a light coat. I was in a trance. Nothing else in the world seemed to matter to me in those moments. I was thinking, but not worrying. I had no reason to be anxious because in that moment I was in a small town in England where nothing mattered. I looked up to the cloudy sky expecting to feel a drop of rain, but nothing came. I had been there for two hours lost in the thought of beauty. The silence was the beauty. There were no distractions while I felt the grass tickle my hands. There were no noises that pulled me out of my trance. There was nothing but silence. And for that, I will forever be thankful for the loud quiet I had experienced.
