In class, we did an activity in which we had to “be quiet.” I sat in my desk, put my head down, and closed my eyes. At first, I had an abundance of thoughts running through my mind -- what was I going to do in Generals’ Period? What was for lunch? How much homework do I have? However, as a few more minutes passed, I wasn’t thinking about anything...all I could pretty much do was listen to my breathing. I felt like I was in the state in between being awake and being sleep -- sort of half-asleep. I didn’t realize the time going by at all: in fact, I thought it had only been around five or ten minutes, but not eighteen. I guess that, in a way, I did experience “quiet” for a while. It was only a matter of time.
