Silence Sounds
Silence sounds.
Look closely, and absolutely every sound is made of silence.
For every sound, before it sounds, was only silence. And when it stops sounding, it will go back to pure silence.
For the "before" and the "when" are not places in time, but origins in the essence of existing. That is why we say that in the beginning was God, though that beginning is happening, inevitably, now.
In this silent universe, noise is a concept that stands for the incoherence of a silent beginning, born of the melody that tells the story of a beginning that does not hear itself. That is, noise is silence unheard.
