Well, it wasn't a total waste, I learned how difficult it really is to shut up. I spoke a lot and I even had a bite for lunch. But I was more conscious of things going on around me, and I did refrain from speaking several times where I knew it wasn't necessary. And I didn't have any coffee until late afternoon. The thing I noticed the most is no matter how hard I try, I can't seem to stop my thoughts from racing. Maybe the problem there is that I'm trying. Perhaps action is more important and/or necessary at this time in my spiritual journey, considering my lifestyle as a working/family man. My understanding of silence and other spiritual disciplines is lacking much at this time. If anyone has any insight, please send it my way.
