At the moment i'm taking some exams -as most of you know- so i don't really have the mental capacity to write anything, so instead i'll just share a thought i had the other day.
The awkward silence; why is it when we are sitting with someone else -or a group of people- and suddenly everyone goes silent do we fee awkward ? why is it do we feel that need to fill that silence with anything, no matter how trivial or mundane it is, just to get over that moment of being uncomfortable?
That's why one of the tests i have for myself, to know whether i'm good friends with a certain person or not, is to be able to sit down with them somewhere, and just not talk, just stay silent and still, enjoying whatever the world has going on around us, and more importantly, enjoying each other's company.
