A sanctuary




Silence is very much taken for granted at times and it could even be much hated by some. I feel that I have learnt to love silence in the recent months, or at least treasure it. Too much noise and conversations could irritate me much at times especially when I am dying for some peace, quiet and personal space. During our stay in Osaka, we spent a night at a temple, away from the busyness of city life. I can still remember the feel of silence in the room that we stayed in. Simply felt like closing my eyes and enter into the world of peacefulness. Liked the fact that every step that I took within that sanctuary was slow and reflective. It's true...in order for one to listen, one needs to be silent.
