I'd like to be quiet. As quiet inside as I can. But I'm still interpreting what quietness is, means. Mystic people call it quietude. Is that the same that as attitude? Pulcritude? Latitude? Longitude? Maybe...I could call it stillitude. I had to look up the suffix tude...and the definition was state, quality or condition. I started my stillness project again yesterday. I still have a long way to go. I am not sure how far I'll get because, when I started doing this a month ago, it only lasted seven days. I still want to try at though , just to see if I emerge a calmer quieter, more patient stiller person. Shielding myself from the aggravation of the small things in life and being able to face more openly , the big things in life.
But I have many questions in my head still. What exactly is stillness? Internal stillness? Is it quieting you thoughts? Is it abstaining from making life changing decisions? I kind of know where stillness is supposed to take me, but I can't really tell what the vehicle that I'm supposed to be riding in looks like? I just know where I want to go.
