This entire post has the paradoxical vibe of the 90s alt-music video, right down to the song lyrics: “words are very/unnecessary.” And yet. Words.

Is faith silent?

I seek silence. I crave it. Yet, you're right, silence is relative in our world and perhaps it's not so much silence as lack of noise I'm after. I think you get that, Jason.

A forest has is own sound, the ocean as well. But these are natural, soothing sounds for me. I am very aware of the constant noise of our ubiquitous technology. I've learned to relax and "allow" It for the most part, but sometimes it still grates. My house is otherwise quiet right now, so I'm listening to it as I write this response.

Which is all to say, great post. I relate!
