In Cecelia Ahern's book "If You Could See Me Now," the protagonist finds profound value in moments of silence, perceiving them as more significant than countless spoken words. This tranquility allows her to gain peace and clarity, suggesting that sometimes, stepping back from chaos enables deeper understanding and reflection.

However, this serenity is not constant, as nighttime brings a struggle with her racing thoughts that disrupt her peace. The contrast between her desire for silence during the day and the turmoil of her mind at night illustrates the complexity of her inner life and the challenges of finding lasting tranquility.
