Your own Silence

Photo by Andy Roberts

We are so swamped with distractions – television, books, cell phones, video games, music, email, the Internet, busy work – that we often forget the importance of true silence.  Time alone is vitally important to all of us.  It is time to reflect and go within to hear within and without.  This alone time is more powerful if you spend it without distractions.  Sit quietly by a fire.  Go out into nature.  Watch the snow silently falling.  Watch the waves roll in and flow out.  Breathe in life and accept whatever comes to you from your soul, your Spirit, the Divine.  Just witness it and honor it.  It is not necessary to interpret what comes to you.  Just be thankful for the quiet and the connection.
