The Sound of Silence

<p>At times when emotions escalate wisdom frequently takes a backseat prompting us to<br />act without contemplating the profound repercussions. It fills our lives with stipulations<br />designed to shield us resulting in our affection being clouded by doubt jeopardizing it<br />with the toxic blend of remorse resentment and ultimately retaliation-forces potent<br />enough to tarnish the soul. We may falter and find ourselves trapped in a cycle of solitude...<br />We seek solace in technology. We dive into the digital world where we can easily change<br />the channel whenever we face disappointment. This artificial reality encourages us to live<br />without boundaries-but only in a passive way. It allows us to love fearlessly-but solely<br />in a virtual context.</p>
