When we are alone we may fear that we will somehow live a life of
loneliness or we may discover some truths about ourselves that can be
scary or hurtful. Being alone is not bad. In fact it is a time to meditate
and discover yourself. In this world of chaos and distractions, we have
gotten into a habit of not stopping, being busy and surrounding
ourselves with things that are loud, disturbing and continuous. Being
alone in the silence is actually one of the healthiest moments you can
have with yourself. The series "I Found The Silence" shows people in
different moments of being alone and discovering themself.
