Jack Off the record, Compete with silence. What's that mean? There's no voice? Nothing to say? Scarcely A word, So it seems, Not like you, I would say, No apology's, No regrets, you haven't sung, your best song yet. I will listen, 'till the day, You can compete with silence. Nothing from nothing equals nothing. jeff
My thinking, as difficult as it seems to some others, is earth based.
In my search to better understand the human being I took to task the learning of the human environment. Children are noisy and parents want quiet. More often the not, noise is nothing but a warning of some kind.
Even the thinkers of past and present pause before submitting a verbal answer, in hopes that the spoken word will have some impact on the historical significance of silence.
Not just any noise is music, it is not due to a human brain that it is called as such either.
When a bird sings in early Spring do we not hear the music in this tune? The disruption of silence by this birds noise was acceptable.
Show me one who has not set in a quiet moment and had this quiet disturbed that did not take issue with the disruption.
In the end, silence is the guage that all audible things are measured by.
