The Silent Die Alone

I just want to make this crystal clear; If you don't talk, no one will hear you. If something is wrong and you don't say a word (be it from fear or because you are trying to protect someone else) no one will come to help. Trillions have died from the mistake of silence (The Holocaust, and the so-called War on Terror). Even on a smaller scale silence can be deadly; it can ruin relationships and destroy families. I once thought my fear of silence was silly, I just hated when it was quiet. However now I'm realizing that the fear of silence is valid and is something every intelligent being should fear. Silence is much deeper than quiet, silence is death.
