Hiljentykäämme : Puheita ja kertoelmia

In this contemplative collection the narrator weaves together a series of meditations on silence, memory and the everyday rituals that shape our lives. A friend recounts how a powerful politician set aside half an hour each day to empty his mind, finding clarity and courage for the challenges ahead, while a quiet ship‑hand on a Mediterranean vessel demonstrates the restorative power of simply breathing in the sea air. These vignettes invite listeners to pause and consider what it means to truly “quiet” oneself in a world that rarely stops.

Interlaced with these reflections are personal recollections of a mother’s love, the ache of unfinished apologies, and a tense journey back home when news of illness spreads. Through vivid, intimate storytelling the work explores how moments of stillness can become a sanctuary, a hidden treasure beneath our hurried steps, and a subtle invitation to reconnect with an ancient, unseen presence that endures beyond ordinary perception.
