...the gift of silence...


If we do not afford ourselves the gift of silence,
 we shall never hear the message of the universe.


this was shot at my mom and dad's.
there are many fun shadows to be had there.
looking to old photos.
because today presents with.
tiny flakes of...
 patience.
just BE.

I, for one, love the gift of silence. There are times when I wish I could be better at it in order to be a better listener. Because it is true, if you are not silent, you cannot hear the whispers of the universe.

Silence brings the gift of revelation from the Holy Spirit.

So simple. I don't want to hear it churn butter. My photo today was inspired by an earlier on of yours. Made me open my eyes and see it.

I have no idea what the object is in the photo, but all the shadows are an invitation to quiet introspection.

Silence can be a gift if it is appreciated and valued. Sadly, there is also the silence of tension, when it is better to speak quietly to enhance understanding. But again, tense silence can breed tense, explosive sharp words. Now I'm raving.
Gorgeous perspective in your photo. The shadow casts a beautiful hush on the moment.

Such a stark shadow. Love the quote on silence! I crave it at times - really need it.
