Why do we feel like we need to fill space with conversation all the time?

Quiet elevator rides aren’t awkward. They’re an opportunity for us to share a space and just exist without having to say anything.

Why can’t we just be in silence without feeling pressure to have a conversation?

Why can’t we just co-inhabit this space?

Silence isn’t awkward. It’s beautiful. And I don’t mind just sharing this space with you.
