I have learnt to be silent, too. Which is not a bad thing, actually. Upon reading a quote by S.D Gordon in Quiet Talks on Prayer, my appreciation for silence and quietness grows even more.
Steadfastness, that is holding on; patience, that is holding back; expectancy, that is holding the face up; obedience, that is holding one's self in readiness to go or do; listening, that is holding quiet and still so as to hear.
Quiet stars of quiet nights...:)

Nice poem, e_nerv ^_^ Hehe for a sanguine such as i, it is necessary to learn how to dismiss my own opinion and my voice sometimes, in order to hear others.
