The stoic as closest narcissist? Is your quiet friend really a douche bag?

Eros is the opposite of death and silence most often is a form of communication which when overused causes prolific harm. On the shitter at work I beseech you to discuss this matter so my bathroom breaks are entertaining.

Death gives life it's meaning, that means that death makes Being possible.

Death awakens us to the truth of our Being. Death reveals (discloses), and un-hides ourselves to ourselves.

That is to say Death is the reflection of life.

Interesting. Then perhaps silence as death is the mirror upon which the stoic's eyes are glued.

Essentially:

There is only one god, and that is death. And what do we say to the god of death? Not today!

Correct?

not always sometimes silence is more of i don't want to deal with your bullshit. or whenever i start to talk you interupt me or don't listen. sometimes silence is there's nothing to say.

also see if there's a cat attached to the person's tongue.

So we see when silence is good or unavoidable or neutral but when does the lady say silence is bad?

Death reveals to us possibilities: To Be or not to Be.

Silence is an expression. That is to say there can be no silence without Being (Without someone who can speak).

Only someone who can talk may be silent.

Silence is for those who don't feel this need to always talk. Silence is laying with someone just enjoying the company. It's self thought and introspection. It's observation. Talking is about discussing the silence, discussing life. Therefore talking is not living, it's looking back. I will do that after I die, for silence is living, not death.

I don't like to use that word because it is too commonly misunderstood, but yes, that works.

So the people defend Silence. It makes sense. Styge lives in us all and she is the benifecent goddess of silence who brings great spiritual gifts in the abyss of emptiness.

So it does not surprise this one that many would see the good in the darkness.
But what of the bad?

Silence can convey, or can be used as a definite way of expressing oneself about something to another, but silence can also conceal, which is the opposite of truth (Unhiddenness), in that way it is bad.

In truth, a blank sheet
Declares by the void
That there is nothing as beautiful
As that which does not exist.
On the magic mirror of its white space,
The soul sees before her the place of the miracles
That we would bring to life with signs and lines.
This presence of absence over-excites
And at the same time paralyses the definitive act of the pen.
There is in all beauty a forbiddance to touch,
From which emanates I don’t know what of sacred
That stops the movement and puts the man
On the point of acting in fear of himselfP

From my own point of view, silence is a refuge that I don't have the luxury to experience. Even when I don't talk, my face makes noise. Silence is where things may be blooming or festering, perhaps both.

This one did not foresee that. A good mind. This silence is the silence of snake.

Another good point to beg the question.

Silence is loud enough for the recipient to hear in their own voice and have no other dissent.

It's what you think it is. Even when it isn't.

This one can be tricked by the silence. But then if one other, not this one, knows the trick upon the one can he not be the trickery too?
