Silence can feel heavy. It is not the calm, peaceful kind of quiet that soothes the mind. Instead, it is the silence that presses down on your chest, making your thoughts louder while your voice stays locked inside. This kind of silence can make you feel invisible, as if your words do not matter or that no one would listen even if you spoke. But silence does not mean you are alone or unheard. Your voice matters, and finding it can bring hope and healing.
