Silence

Tomorrow morning my lovely girlfriend Iris leaves for ten days of meditation in the Blue Mountains. She’ll have ten days without speaking, without the phone, TV, and worst of all – INTERNET! Just meditation, all day.

I figure this could either be very very good, or very very bad. You might end up in triumphant a voyage of discovery, gaining inner peace and tranquillity… or you could be just completely bored out of your skull. I can certainly see the benefits of silence. I’m just not sure I could stand ten days worth.
