Sometimes people are afraid of nature and silence. Because in silence they often start to panic and feel deep disturbance.
One of them asked me why I told him that nature and silence will help him to find his soul freedom. He told me that he felt so bad that he is afraid of silence now.
I remembered that this problem was mentioned in a buddhistic book.
So I gave him the answer of the author. I told him that because of the silence he was confronted with himself for the first time. In normal big city life you dont realize how dispersed you are anymore. And in the calmness of nature you experience your true inner self, frightening for so many. In big cities it is easy to distract ourselves not to feel the restlessness.

But it is exactly our duty to expose ourselves to silence and our true selves to bring back ballance in our souls.
If you manage to achieve that to find balance in yourself you will feel connected to the world again and you will feel like you have never felt before since your childhood.
Be brave and face yourself! It will be your best decision you ever made.

Personally i love silence this is very relaxing for me

Lovely photographs. What a pleasure it would be to walk in silence along that path that in addition to taking us to the unknown for me is, a pleasure to enjoy with myself, of the stillness, the landscape and the climate so eloquent for a conversation with my inner self, very good post as always @monkeydnima

Your photos really made me think of some works by Giorgio de Chirico...eery and awesome stuff. f2b274611886137491d0c41ae3473442342c4f1b_1100.jpg
