The sound of one hand clapping!


How could you begin to describe the feeling if you have not experienced it? I mean the if you do have two hands you'll use both of them to clap unless you are occupied and may only use your one hand.

TO me the sound of one hand clapping is like someone trying to speak to you but you are not hearing them. The voice is there but the impact or the presence of that one person just seems to die out into a crowd of people. The clap is merely slow, and soundless, and if there is sound, it is minimal.

The sound of one hand clapping is sad to me. It's like if you had the choice what you choose... one hand to two hands. I don't think anyone would only want one hand. If I had to be that person, I would be frustrated and feel like an outcast to the world.

People might think how can you say that, but its just the way life and the people of the world stereotype and discriminate against people who do not look the same because of what we are taught and how the world influences of thinking and frame of reference.

The sound of one hand clapping is like having an argument with someone where we tend to agree to disagree. Just in some cases people can't seem to reach any common ground which leaves you all alone. It's the same with forming groupies of friends and soon realizing that nobody really cares about you, you are just there to support others in need and be a support group when nobody else cares. You find yourself isolated really, not being able to express yourself openly and fluently.

The sound of one hand clapping... What do you think it means?

Until next time.. chow bela :)

  1. The sound of one hand clapping is not a good sign at all. Why would there be one person clapping when lets say for example there is a group of people in a room. It must mean that what one has done in front of an audience wasn't appreciated by the majority of it.
