The Silent Space

The Search blog fell silent for a while.  It is not unlike me as my friends and some of my former friends know.  I truly enjoy my silence and sometimes I disappear for a while.  There has been many a time that I labeled it procrastination or laziness, but I have come to realize that although those labels fit occasionally, generally speaking I need my space, my silent space.  It is space that is not easily described. It is the space where I am, where I experience connection or sometimes disconnection with myself and mostly feel quite connected to other people, a space where I can reflect and think.  It is in this space that my intuition re-aligns, where my heart gets fed – it is a soul space where the troubled inner waters become clear again. Perhaps it is connecting to the Source, or perhaps it is simply about re-finding an inner balance. 

It helps me to distinguish the more important from the less important things.  It helps me think about the questions rather than trying to find the answers.  It helps me live from the inside out, to become more of who I am, to stay grounded.  This is important to me because I experience the world as a place where it is very easy to get overwhelmed.  I still walk out of bookstores because I cannot handle the number of books that are available, or have trouble going to the grocery store because there are too many choices.  Too many experiences and too much information have a paralyzing effect on me and it leads me to drifting away from information and experiences that are available inside.
