Moments of absolute silence
are rare treasures in this world
Celestial moments
Moments that make you redefine yourself
and this world you live in
Some moments are simple, quick,
seemingly unimportant
Sitting in the waiting room to see the dentist
Others are monumental, profound
Watching the casket come to the front of the chapel
The silence redefines the shapes around you
It makes your mind turn in on itself
It has made me aware of things
that cannot exist in a world of sound
Silence is heavy
and whatever the gravity of the moment
can change your life
