"I've begun to realize that you can listen
to the silence and learn from it. It has a
quality and a dimension all its own."
Chaim Potok
I walked through the garden gate, immediately surrounded by fragrances lofting in a gentle breeze. I settled on my favorite bench and sat until all became still. Peace at last, worries evaporating, and all stress falling away.
As I opened my eyes, I began to glimpse the singing birds and feel the sun shining upon my face. The warmth melted into my body allowing me to feel perfectly safe. I could hear the little critters scurrying beneath my feet, reminding me this was their home.
I open my heart to the words hidden in silence, as they are like fragrant flowers with delicate petals,' Each one must be held tenderly, without danger of harm. I fill my body with each breath, wishing this dimension were my eternal home.
