After two sequential nights of Silent Dining in a private home in Shoreditch in London, where 15 of us ate together each night, one of the guests left this anonymous note behind after the meal:
“There is a day in everyone’s life
when he or she is Silenced forever.
The ultimate truth of Life is Death
This is a celebration of death!”
I found this a really beautiful response.
Silence is impossible in Life, our bodily functions make sure of that.
Only Death holds silence’s true promise. Reason to celebrate death for sure!
Thank you anonymous guest, for this wonderful and poetic reminder.
