The Silent Bell

A Ring Meant to Be Felt, Not Heard

By GoldenSpeechPublished 2 months ago 1 min read

A cathedral bell refused to ring, no matter how hard it was struck. Visitors complained until a monk suggested everyone sit beneath it in silence. As they did, each person felt a vibration through their chest—an echo of emotions they had tried to silence. The bell, it seemed, rang inward. It taught the village that sometimes the loudest answers are those that shake the heart, not the air.
