The volume of life didn’t lower you just stopped needing to raise your voice.
At some point during the day, you noticed it: the absence of noise not outside, but inside. You hadn’t spoken in hours. You weren’t avoiding anyone, and you weren’t ignored. You were just… quiet. And it didn’t feel like loneliness. It felt like return. The stillness that followed you from room to room wasn’t emptiness it was yours. In a world that asks you to constantly react, you did something radical: you simply stayed with yourself. No narration. No soundtrack. Just breath and thought and being.
