This is one of the official 'silent areas' in Belgium located in the Gerhagen forests.
It's a place where sounds of nature rule over all other sounds.
You cannot believe the quietness of these places.
When I was photographing this area, I heard those tiny little clicking sounds in my camera that I had never noticed before.
I could even hear the scratching sound of the metal spring beneath the shutter button.
It was quiet an experience.
Thanks for all your comments and support!

We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass - grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls.

Hello darkness, my old friend... Unexpectedly, you find solace and meaning in the dark silence of the night to create a nocturnal glowworm world...
"Hello, darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a streetlamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence...."
SOUND OF SILENCE (excerpt) - Simon & Garfunkel, 1964.
When I saw this item on the list this song came right into my head.
While I do not have that album I do have this greatest hit with that song on it.
Simon and Garfunkel were truly great song writers in their day.
So many hits. Click on the link and enjoy.

Chimes hang quietly on my back deck in strong low sunlight. Awaiting a gentle breeze to make them sing.
Like people in my life, the music of chimes can make my soul sing.
And like people in my life, their silence can be deafening.
Blessings,
Sheree
Leaves fall
The speed of tears
Smash the ground
Silently splash
Quivering echoes
Through silent streets
The Giant cries
Tears as many as leaves
Catching the mournful wind
Through skeletal branches
Till no more leaf is left to shed
Then deadly silence
Winter is here to stay

I often think that the night is more alive and more richly colored than the day.

The Sound of Silence - Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel www.goear.com/listen.php?v=9ee5380
"The Sound of Silence", originally "The Sounds of Silence", is a song by the American music duo Simon & Garfunkel. The song was written by Paul Simon over several months in 1963 and 1964. A studio audition led to the duo signing a record deal with Columbia Records, and the original 'acoustic' version of the song was recorded in March 1964 at Columbia Studios in New York City and included on their debut album, Wednesday Morning, 3 A.M.. Released on October 19, 1964, the album was a commercial failure and led to the duo disbanding; Simon returned to England, and Art Garfunkel to his studies at Columbia University.
In 1965, the song began to attract airplay at radio stations in Boston, Massachusetts, and throughout Florida. The growing airplay led Tom Wilson, the song's producer, to remix the track, overdubbing electric instruments and drums. This remixed version was released as a single in September 1965. Simon & Garfunkel were not informed of the song's remix until after its release. The song hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for the week ending January 1, 1966, leading the duo to reunite and hastily record their second album, which Columbia titled Sounds of Silence in an attempt to capitalize on the song's success. The remixed single version of the song was included on this follow-up album.
Simon & Garfunkel were an American folk-rock duo consisting of singer-songwriter Paul Simon and singer Art Garfunkel. They were one of the best-selling music groups of the 1960s, and their biggest hits—including "The Sound of Silence" (1965), "Mrs. Robinson" (1968), "The Boxer" (1969), and "Bridge over Troubled Water" (1970)—reached number one on singles charts worldwide.
Simon & Garfunkel won 10 Grammy Awards and were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990. Rolling Stone ranked them number 3 on its list of the 20 Greatest Duos of All Time. Richie Unterberger described them as "the most successful folk-rock duo of the 1960s" and one of the most popular artists from the decade. They are among the best-selling music artists, having sold more than 100 million records. Bridge over Troubled Water is ranked at number 172 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.

"Le silence est un véritable ami qui ne trahit jamais."
Confucius
Hello darkness, my old friend,
I've come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
'Neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of
A neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dare
Disturb the sound of silence.
Fools said I,you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you.
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed
In the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon God they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
And the signs said, the words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls.
And whisper'd in the sounds of silence.
~Sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel~

nothing pretty
or fancy
zen
like silence
like ...
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp,
When my eyes were stabbed
By the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
(The Sound of Silence by Simon & Garfunkel)

j'ai pris une photo de toi sur ta galerie ; je te demande pardon. Au début, je l'ai gardée dans un dossier et aujourd'hui, je l'ai arrangée de telle façon que tu puisses savoir que je pense à toi, que je regarde régulièrement ta galerie, et que je me demande surtout comment tu vas.
Et si tout va bien pour toi, et si ton absence de Flickr te fait du bien et te convient, j'en serais heureuse pour toi.
Mais il y a trop de silence pour que je reste moi-même silencieuse et trop d'amis qui se demandent pourquoi tu es parti sans rien dire........
Amour et Paix sur toi, Antoine et sur les tiens.

Antoine (Tonino, Jérôme) : I took a picture of you from your gallery. Please do forgive me. At first, I have kept it in a special file and today, suddenly, I decided to make a collage to let you know that I think of you, that I always have an eye on your gallery, that I miss you. But the most important of all is HOW ARE YOU ?
If you are OK, if you enjoy not beeing anymore on Flickr, SO I'm glad for you.
But there is too much silence for me to stay without words - and there are so many friends wondering why you left us without WORDS..........
Antoine, LOVE and PEACE for you and for the ones you love.

...E nella luce pura vidi
migliaia di persone, o forse più
persone che parlavano senza emettere suoni
persone che ascoltavano senza udire
persone che scrivevano canzoni che le voci non avrebbero mai cantato
e nessuno osava, disturbare il suono del silenzio [...]
