One of the colors of my silence

Silence has many colors to me and I believe to many of you as well. Some of my silences are blue, some are green and some read. I came a cross a new color of silence … but I cannot tell what color it is .....


Have you every been in such a beautiful silence that for the hopes of this moment not ending you could not say a word …take another breath….have you ever been in a blissful storm that you did not want to ever end and hence remained silent? Add to that a thorn, would you scream of pain or stay silent because the beauty is more overwhelming than the pain?

One of my silences smell like fear ….smell like hope ….smell like a new born baby …

I cannot tell the color no matter how hard I try to look seems like pink glasses will distort the colors ….have you ever submerged your self totally in water that you no longer can smell …see correctly ….nor hear , but your heart beat and thoughts …this is the new silence I have discovered…I cannot tell you what color it is …can any one tell me what the color of this silence is ?

What's your story with Colors?
Can you give us some precontest?

Qwaider

Colors have meanings - in my opinion- some are happy colors some are sad, some are warm and some are cold ....some are ven more complicated, for example I feel that yellow is happy but envious! Orange is companionate and warm but kind of gutsy.

I just cannot put a color to the feelings I'm going through ...can you or any one help me find the color of this silence ?

And I don't blame you if you think am kind of crazy

my first time here and inshalla not the last but got a Q 4 u plz if u dont mind

wut is da difference bwt untraditional & liberal....

just had a look @ ur profile and the word "untraditional"caught my attention

Tamara said...

Arab lady – welcome to my coroner and I'm glad you are planning to make many more visits : D Mi casa es su casa

As for untraditional Vs Liberal, liberal usually refers to not abiding by social or religious guidelines, untraditional in my opinion and what I was referring to is that I'm not like every one else, I dare to question norms and traditions well every thing for that matter, not disrespect them just question and I only follow what I'm convinced in and follow only the true rule of Islam. And well my untraditionally shows in other aspects, if you follow my writings you will see manifestations of that ( this is called blog promotion ; ) )

The color of silence is definitely black ....

Tamara said...

Black …really ? Care to elaborate on that ?

I think Qwaider is relating to a blank black computer screen..thats when every thing is silent to him.....
As you can see that is an arbitray thing..but my silence color is defintely White.....Its the same color for when I go in a trance..or when I am watching a majestic site like when I was at mount Renier I just went silent and my mind went through a relaxing joyfull state.
Then I said Sub7an Allah, this and other mountains will be blown up and be there no more on the Day of Judgment...Allahu Akbar min ay shay2.

Tamara said...

Well Abdulla I think Qwaider is not a fan of silence or the colors I assign to them : )

I see that you agree with me that different kinds of silence have different feelings behind them, that is what I refer to by assigning colors to the silence. White is the silence you feel when watching a majestic sight...but what about when your angry at someone you don't want to heart so you stay silent ...or when your feeling lost or depressed? see what I mean

Any way if you can read the feelings I have described and try to find out what color it is it would be great.

the first thing (color) that crossed my mind when i tried to remeber such a silence.. is the dark blue ... nothing else just the dark blue, and the (strange silence sound) that u hear while u are under the water.....

Tamara said...

anonymous ...

I see your point, if you feel its the right color then it is cuz its about feelings any way.

Come to think of it I would say its a worm orange tone like when the sea is colored by the warmth of the setting son...hmm what do you think ?

''Orange is companionate and warm but kind of gutsy'' Quoted from your reply to qwaider,,

yes it is about feelings may be we have to discover our feelings more and more and respect them after we discover them... i think when u want to enjoy this silence u will feel orange but when u just want to relax and concentrat on this silence u will feel another color.. so it would be the same silence the same person ... but different color ... cuz u would have a different mood... do u agree.. we have to try...

When I am mad and angry and silent because of it, it's certainly Black color ( Afkar sawda..hehehe)
When depressed I associate Indigo with it (neela eli tenayl elpope)

When lost and scared, its the depth of the ocean color.
Happy , green.....when hot red
when cold blue, when in pain Orange
when in love, the whole rainbow
when threatend and attacked both red and black mixed ( that will make a nice looking outfit, don't u think so :) ).

when tired, yellow

How about that Tamy?

Well this is the point of my " the color of my silence " posts, you can go back and you will find more ( at this point I wish I can put a link ) in any case I don't have that many posts so it should not take that long.

And please put a name to your comments : ) I don't like the anonymous part

Abdulla

First can I please ask of you to call me by my name (Tamara)

Every one of us have their own feelings and moods, and we can assign any color to them, as long as we are true to ourselves and know our feelings and the reasons behind them. The point was to artistically conveying a feeling that led to a type of silence but it does not have to be a silence. You can describe any feeling with no reference to silence.
