Silence and Perspective

Space is a vacuum, and sound is physically impossible in a vacuum.

Still, though this picture is taken from space, it is focused on the earth, which we all know from experience is far from silent. The earth has so many things that space (probably) doesn't have: life, music, rain, love. But the one thing that space really has, that is so hard to find on earth, is silence.

And in that silence is beauty, clearly expressed in the picture. There is lonliness too, but also peace. This really sums up my relationship with silence.
