Have you ever wondered whether being someone who “never causes problems” is truly a good thing? This piece is for those who appear strong for a long time but quietly carry everything they feel inside... Some children never make a fuss. They adapt, never burden anyone. They are called “how well-behaved”, “how mature”. Even when sad, they learn at an early age to hide their feelings, postpone their needs, and behave according to the expectations of their environment. But human cannot help asking:

Nothing That Has Eyes, by Zeynep Arkan, one of the original voices of contemporary Turkish poetry, is a collection of poems that interrogates the inner world of the individual, sensitivity toward social reality, and the metaphysical dimension of silence. The poet redefines the boundaries between being and meaning, innocence and domination, power and fragility through the language of poetry. The poems in this work possess a multilayered narrative that can be interpreted through both individual an

Have you ever considered how valuable silence can be, sometimes more than speaking? The proverb “Speech is silver, silence is golden” tells us precisely this. Sometimes saying something may be as valuable as silver, but knowing when to remain silent is even more precious, like gold. This saying emphasizes the importance of thinking before speaking and, at times, choosing silence.

Libraries are homes for books. For anyone who loves reading, they are like quiet treasure rooms. A library is a place where many books are kept together and people can read them. In some libraries, you can find not only books but also magazines, newspapers, maps, and even computers. Someone who wants to read can visit the library and choose a book on the topic they are interested in. In some libraries, books can be taken home, while in others they can only be read on-site. Why Is It Important? L

It Must Be Heaven, directed by Palestinian filmmaker Elia Suleiman and starring himself, is a 2019 film that continues the director’s signature silent humor while questioning the meaning of being Palestinian within a global context. Through a journey from Nazareth to Paris and New York, the film explores universal feelings of alienation centered on themes of “statelessness,” “identity,” and “exile.” Through silence, static compositions, and an observational protagonist, the film presents both a

One of the greatest misconceptions about the psychotherapy process is the belief that the therapy room must constantly overflow with words, confessions, and heated dialogue. Yet everyone who steps into that room knows that sometimes the most powerful sentences are not those spoken aloud, but the deep silences that settle like mist in the center of the room. A person sitting in the client’s chair being silent does not mean they have nothing to say. On the contrary, sometimes the weight of words b

You know the unique, time-stopping scent of classrooms; a blend of chalk dust, old wood, and a faint sweetness of nervous energy... But what truly brings a classroom to life is not its painted walls nor the blackboard standing in the corner. The true spirit of the classroom lies deep within the worn, time-worn school desks, their surfaces smoothed by years of elbows resting upon them. Are there not names carved into those desks with a compass point or a ballpoint pen during the most tedious mome

Human beings occupy in the universe a space equal to the volume of their own emptiness. But some spirits fill that emptiness with such a sharp, unyielding seepage that even the silence left behind becomes a roaring river. Nilgün Marmara was one of those delicate and unyielding voices who treated this planet as a two-step lodging and watched its backyards early on, choosing departure as an act of will to preserve her own truth. Her poetry is a spiritual journey that wanders at the limits of endur

DoDo you understand what I keep hidden inside? The sentences I could never say, the ones that remain within me? Can you read me in my eyes, The silent thoughts I have nurtured in my heart? Do you know what I think through the nights, The memories left behind in the past? Can you hear the storms that break within me, The feelings I could never tell anyone? Can you see beyond the smile on my face, The resentment I hide, the silence within me? Will you ever truly understand me, When I sometimes canno

ThIn one of the houses where I spent my childhood, there was a door at the end of the hallway that rarely opened. Its interior was not entirely forbidden—no one ever said “don’t go in.” But for some reason, no one went there often. When the door did open, a different smell came from inside—a heavy, silent scent characteristic of rooms that had been closed for a long time. An old chair stood in front of the window, along with a few unused items, boxes beginning to yellow, and objects covered in dus
