Could you go a whole day without speaking, texting, commenting? dunno

Do you realise that every time we type a comment we give our energy away?

If we get involved in someone´s story, we give out even more energy. grin


However, this loss of energy can be retrieved at the end of the day – for those who know how to. idea


Can you try, for one day, not to say a word (verbal or written)? blah blah


I have myself done it and, I can assure you, that it is really rejuvenating!

4 hours and nothing. I think you scared everyone and they are trying to be quiet laugh jk

On a serious note: Yes, I have gone from 1 day to 4 months without posting.
Talking: Yes, A day of silence thumbs up Some also use that for fasting and prayer
The difficult part is other people... they hate it and don't respect it (because they all think they are special roll eyes and your lifestyle or requests don't apply to them).
So I stopped giving people the heads up wink And I just do it. angel

Hi Cossak...yes you're right..I've scared everybody off! laugh
Maybe it was a test? dunno

I see You've tried to stay off CS..very good!
Mind you...commenting once in a while is not so bad as long as we don't get involved.

The loss of energy can be retrieved at the end of the day...which is what I do with a short meditation.

As for not talking at all It must be difficult if you have family around.
And you must also ignore your phone.

I manage to have quiet days with no one around...and NO phone calls.

I have more days than not of when I don't speak a word. I don't text unless my daughter sends it to me and that is rare. My phone rarely rings. And all that is because I live alone.

I don't mind living alone in fact I like it compared to the stress I would have if I lived with someone.

When I have a whole week of not saying a word it does bother me. I don't know why, it just does. I watch a lot of tv so I do get to hear people talk.

I've only had this computer five months. Prior to getting it I didn't have a computer for two years.

I've never been a social butterfly.

Hello Secret..wave

I know what you mean about the stress when living with someone. grin

I also like my moments of peace and quiet but at times it's nice to be able to talk with someone and share things..and laugh together.

Mind you..you could always get a dog? At least they don't argue with you laugh

What about going out and meeting people and socialize?

I have no interest at all in meeting new people or the dreaded socializing barf

Like most people I've been burned by men and burned by so-called women friends.

I have a friend on CS who lives in Canada. If we lived closer together I'm sure we would be bestie friends. Right now we have a good cyber friendship. I'm satisfied with that.

Ignoring the inevitable TDS and back on topic, I've lived alone for the most part since widowed. Yes, had some friends who stayed in their time of need.

I most miss the quiet time, snuggling in a cold Colorado bedroom till falling asleep. Waking and sharing the sunrise. Coffee for me, tea for her. Differences make for decades IMHO.

After a while, there is really no need to fill up a vacuum with words.

So yes, I can get by, even in my sleep. I do miss what I've lost. I rather doubt at this late stage, all of us being halfway damaged, that it will happen again. So I spend a lot time traveling. If you stay busy, you don't notice what you are missing.

raphael119: Dont worry Mikey, were getting rid of Trump and Putins influence. I still have friends who keep track of Russian "agents" in D.C. Even some Congressmen now are have picked up the term I coined the NRA = National Russian Association. The increase in the amount of Russian agents the past two years is scary.
Yeah gods ... have they not found you decent psychomeds yet rappy !!!

Still the same OCDR (obsessive compulsive delusional ranting)

Y'll be telling us next that Schiffty Adam is a good man who's integrity can be relied upon !

Hmmm...unfortunately I need to speak to people at times!

And besides...the friends who come to visit are the only ones I can have interesting conversations with.

Well check wkiki pedia under Trappist monks, St. Benedict discouraged most speech as evil and forbidden
He was concerned about exercising self will rather than gods will.
