Did the silence of your heart blind you to all you feel?

Answer 1

It was the noise of the mind, rather.

........Operacat, thanks for the elaboration. I tend to stop at the point where I think I have made my point, (!! play on words unintentional) while most people welcome some explanation - indeed, some won't even get the point otherwise. I hope you get ten of them ! - the pun here IS intentional.

Answer 2

My heart was as massive as the universe and I had many, many doors within it. Behind the doors I stored my memories in different rooms. Today all the rooms are filled, the doors shut and there is silence. I have finally put a stop to searching for a love for me, a knight in shining armor, a man of chivalry so my heart is blinded by silence so deep you can hear it whisper.

Answer 3

Did you mean you allowed someones heart to bleed because you chose to be silent instead of allowing your heart to unlock your actions and words so you can ease the pain and hurt of this human being?

You had reasons, no? I am saying that because in your heart resides the better, if not the best part of you. If it was silenced, it was because it was being held hostage and bullied into silence by the nastier part of you.

These are things that stay with you and haunt you, simply because the angel in you will still have to face this bully in you day by day by day.

Answer 4

The silence that grasped me with the dead cold hand beyond the grave, dare she ensnared me in the blindness of the underworld, hissing for me to close my eyes and heart, so that I could not see the pain or suffering, so that I could not feel the agony of the evil one who devised and imagined to torture my soul and drag me to the pits of hades, where the silence is nonexistant and the screams echo throughout for an eternity. I plead for silence, for a calm amidst the raging storm, but the pain I feel is real. The witch who visits the promised land to destroy all that is good, beckons me to join her for a times and time to silence the pain I have seen and felt, I tell her No! For it is in destroying, lieing, manipulating your brother or sister in Christ, that opens up the heart and eyes to the demons of hell, who have been given the key to destroy all, and the silence will prevail and the pain will be surreal.

Answer 5

No, it was the noise in my MIND ...now I'm suffering the pain from it. It is hard for me to silence my mind. My heart is usually silent. I have a question for you...does the heart rule the mind, or does the mind rule the heart?

Answer 6

Blind me? Or simply create the expectation of a heart whose only capability is its lack of conscious feeling? Silence is rudimentary, it grants you liberty; a fleeting chance for expansion. I say take it

Answer 7

A silent heart feels; it is the opposite of "blinding." Give it time for a better view, looking from the inside out in silence.

Loved the answers from jbaudlet & rousseau...

Answer 8

My heart is never silent as it speaks to me of all that I can feel. Sometimes it keens with grief and other times it laughs right out loud. A chorusline of angels and demons sing and play their instuments upon its recording devices.

Answer 9

On the contrary, the silence of my heart is the silence of the meditative Monks; I more aware of my feelings and of my inner-truth... the mirror of the cosmos.
"A broken mirror never reflects again; fallen flowers never go back to the old branches."

Answer 10

Hi,
My heart is never silent. My feelings never hidden from the essence that is me. Emotion might colour or blind rationality but feelings are so strong I could never be unaware of that side of me.

Answer 11

That is exactly the pitfall one should avoid, consciously, with all his might and mind and other powers in his command. When heart becomes silent, you go numb, defeated, unless you ally forces with your mind and override heart's objections. With time and efforts, heart starts whispering again...
