NO Need to Say “SILENCE PLEASE"

Listening to music, travelling by bus. I dropped down to the main porch of the hospital. As usual routine, we went straight away to the DIC cabin and then, marked our attendance, discussed on few topics. Later on, parted our ways to take up new cases, analyze new therapies. Understand them, assess and intervene.

 Wandering with my friend, to all the wards I entered a ward without looking at the board. And was just astonished. Whoa! It’s damn silent. I had a flush of thoughts but forgetting it. I entered further and skimmed through a few cases, having a look at them. At that very moment, I just glanced up to see a person sitting on the bed, of course, it was the patient because he was inpatient apron. He was imitating all the behavioral aspects, what I was doing and mesmerizingly, it was exact.

The same pause was mimicked which I gave to read the case, the person was doing with a stack of papers present beside him.

Seeming it to be so silent. I wondered what the other wards were so noisy, whereas this was ultimately depicting the phrase “PIN DROP SILENCE “. The patients were merely engaged in people talk or showing any interest in the other point of view. They were actually just talking to themselves. I wouldn’t say that if we speak to ourselves we become the same but, I think rather than wasting our time in understanding others. We need to spend at least 45 minutes of our time to our own personal growth.

 I was forced to see which ward is this? I just stepped back, found my answer and was shocked. It was written - the psychiatry ward.
