Silence
“Words create limitations but silence, oh silence, you are so rich and limitless“
- this is a quote from the front cover of Silvia Pogoda’s photographic album named “Butterflies”.
The quote profoundly describes to me the meaning of isolation (in the positive sense). I understand silence here not only in the form of lack of conversation, switching off Spotify or something similar. In a broader meaning, it’s freedom from other people’s thoughts. That includes articles, books or social media. It is purely being with oneself whatever that may bring.
The above photograph shows a place very dear to me where the limitless silence was abundant and supported by the surrounding valleys and jungle with majestic Mt. Agung in the distance.
