Inspiring silence

                      
Isn't it true ....that 'Nature's beauty'  do hold silence. Silence that  can inspire our thought process.
Being in Nature's arm for a while even I do forget all my worries. That moment I can hear the silence which my mind sense deeply and my heart tries to hold a breath as to keep that feeling long lasting in my thoughts. Like blood corpuscles flows in veins to reach body parts and oxygenate  cells to energise them to do desired work  in same manner these inspired thoughts make their way in to my brain enable it to view fresh ideas through that silence of nature . How wonderfully Nature's silence inspire us to be creative with views ; to be fresh with memories ; to be innovative with ideas ; to be happy by forgetting our day today worries and lots more accordingly one's approach.

Somewhere as getting along with this Nature's silence  train , my hearing sense organ made me to hear other sounds too; chirping of birds, rustling of leaves , shopping sound of breeze and low whispering voices of nearby passing people . These various sounds actually join me on my  thoughtful journey and make it more ideally pleasant.

This silently heard Nature's voice reminds  me some of my very own memories with it just like mom use to tell her kids stories of their childhood who they forgot in between. One of mesmerising incident  with Nature I do get remember very well is of couple of week ago.

 I with my family of two daughters and their father were to explore  Frankfurt (Main) Hauptbahnhof and after taking fantastic express tour by bus ; we decided to take some amount of rest at Metzerpark. This park was so beautiful with people enjoying spring's sunny day. My kids just got engaged in catch play with pigeons in the park. My husband was there with kids to look after them as not getting them too close to river side. I was sitting on grass and as usual took Nature's silence train. Just I was travelling through it suddenly kind of small brown coloured 'helicopter ' landed on my knee side. I picked up it and observe carefully. Being a Botany student I got to know it was a fruit of Maple tree. There were hundreds of Maple fruits already have spreaded on grass little bit away from its huge parent trees. Maple tree fruits have seeds enclosed in it with a flattened wing of fibrous , paper tissue structure to have seed dispersion by means of wind. So these are shaped to spin in air to carry contained seeds to a considerable distance on the wind for further germination and propagation. Having such distinctive structure these fruits are known by many names like helicopters, whirlybirds.

I was started collecting some of Maple fruits from nearby grass playing with them by throwing in air and it's amazing as they spin and land on ground not that far away. Suddenly I thought might these maple fruits helped our mankind by their structure to invent something to fly so they are called as'helicopters' : the way that they spin as they fall. I was just picked up my phone googled to Wikipedia to look about maple fruit and as I was sure these maple seeds gave  idea to develop a special air drop which was used during world war II. That time it also added up to my knowledge through silence of Nature I have pursued mean while.

" Hey , Mom " ,my younger daughter said," I also want to play with it , what it is?" She took one of fruit wing from me started throwing them and clapping in between ; might be she was observing me from last some minutes and got attracted towards these 'whirlybirds' like me.

I look out around and stare at the fly of' ' Maple seed'  that my daughter just have thrown .....really Nature's silence is so contented for those who knows how to get inspire from it.

  1. Very beautifully expressed. Recently I been to Matheran. What a profound sense of silence I felt because no motor vehickes are allowed on that hill station of just 10sq km of dense jungle. Only sound is of nature and birds. I was observing maun during those 3 days. So my listening power was more intense.

  2. U presented a slice of ur heart through this article. Nicely written. I agree with u in totality, I am so much engaged in the hustle of making kitchen run that I forgot my inner self. For a city dweller like me, silence is disturbance, as it bring calmness and I m not trained to handle the calmness.

    Happy that u found beauty in solitude and have expressed in words for me to be envy. Have a great day....keep blogging.
