Share Silence | The Point

Conversation can be good. Teaching can be good. Learning can be good. Stillness in our time alone can be good. But, shared silence can also be good.

If silence is golden, shared silence is platinum. We have a need to be with other people and for silence. Putting the two together—to enjoy mutual silence—is part of what it means to "just be with" people. No relationship has any constant need to teach, antagonize, energize, encourage, or even support—except that relationships require being with someone. The "be with" part is the only constant. Sometimes, practice just that part.
