i have taken VOW OF SILENCE today.
why did i take such vow?
no strong reason actually, not to test my determination, not for inner peace shit, not to control too much non sense but only because i thought being 'mute' and 'writing down what you want to say' is cool..because as you don't talk, and rarely write down what you want to say, your every note will have better attention than a
word that is spilled out.
...though my day hasn't been a complete success, but i did great i think...
on the other side of the coin, many negatives too..
1-can't always convey what you want to say
2-even if you can, would be difficult sometimes
3- forget about cracking instantaneous jokes
4- cant call any person who is not looking at you.
5- cant attend or make a phone call ( can, but you have break the vow )
6- your listeners may not always be patient to understand your signs or words..( they'll get used to it )
etc., we can go on like this for both sides of the mutism... but here we are talking about vow of silence, mean we can talk but we choose not to...today, i have taken that vow and broke it at-least a dozen times. most of the times it was necessary, some times words just escaped my mouth and other time not wanting to make people think that i have taken a vow for attention, so, i didn't even let them know about the vow by breaking it.. how stupid that is....
i talk too much shit. this i realized from today's experience itself...millions of times unnecessary conversation just tried to spill out of my mouth and i was successful in holding almost all of them back.i am not a monk or have no real strong reason to take my vow too seriously and stay super mute. in cases where i feel talking is necessary, i will speak, that too too little. i am a student, so i need to interact with lecturers sometimes, i may came across a stranger somewhere, in such situations i'll not even think about 'thinking about breaking the vow', i'll just break it...
i am going to stay mute tomorrow too, this time i'll not let even one useless word.. at-least i'll try...but tomorrow there is a test, and may face circumstances where i should open my mouth.. lets see..
