The Power of Silence
We live in a society where silence is uncomfortable. If we are on a date and we hear crickets, it must mean something is wrong.

Humans are a funny species. As far as we know, we are the only species that construct abstract ideas. With this abstraction, some words and ideas become very subjective. We can’t concretely picture them or hold them. We just ruminate over the impossible.
