Silence

"God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass - grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence. ... We need silence to be able to touch souls."
Mother Teresa

We need silence to express our true selves. Silence is countercultural and more; it leads us beyond culture, beyond illusion, beyond words, to the truth of peace. In silence, we can no longer deny our basic humanity, our powerlessness, our helplessness. Silence unveils our vulnerable selves.


Today

Give yourself the gift of silence and solitude.
