This needs to happen more than ever. I need to completely cut off and eliminate certain aspects in my life so that I can see the things surrounding me. I already have a very hightened sense of things around me, but it’s not the same. I’m a medium-high chatty person, but I get this from being a Gemini (and i’m sure other life aspects). I talk and talk and talk (neither uncontrollably, nor in an annoying matter), PLUS my job here at Walt Disney World is all based on TALKING! I perform shows with scripts that range up to 21 pages long. It’s exhausting, to say the least.
Imagine this…
No internet, no cell phone, no talking…
...I can’t wait.

Yesterday I started ny vow of scilence. Today will be harder, because I am going to be surrounded by friends and teachers. I’m not going to tell them what I am doing in case it doesn’t work out. Lets see how long I last!

In my life i have never really had silence, and i have never been one with my thoughts, so i want to take a vow of silence for a month this summer, i’ve only gotten support from two people in my life, while everyone else thinks it silly. But it feels like a calling though, i’m trying to find a monastery or nunnery where i can go and just be in silence, i really want this to happen.

I have decided that i shall take a vow of silence after my holidays, for apparently this is a selfish thing to do, and my grandparents would hate it. So exactly 5 days before school starts i am to take a vow of silence.
My reasons for takeing this vow, is to try to descover myself, become a better person, try to look at life in different ways, to conserntrate on school more, and to learn to appreciate life.
I hope that i cann acheive this, and i shall keep you up-dated :)

I am taking a vow of silence until I get into university, a way to get me working more, and talking less.

I was quiet for about na hour with my friend, and I decided that it felt good so I should try it out for about a week and see if I’d like to do it for longer.
I’m starting it monday November 3rd.

I am just TIRED of talking. I have done nothing but talk in my life and it has annoyed me so much in life that I don’t know why I never considered shutting up for once and acting upon my thoughts.
It’s time it’s done. I am starting today the 1st of November. An open-ended vow of silence. One that would help me realize the value of actions and the emptiness of words.
Good luck to all everyone doing this!
