Sounds of Silence


O' GREAT SPIRIT
help me always
to speak the truth quietly,
to listen with an open mind
when others speak,
and to remember the peace
that may be found in silence.

Cherokee Prayer

Especially the type of silence that carries the whisper of a wind, the echo of a sky-high bird and the wantful applause of the tide

Quiet mind and peaceful heart . . . the by products of walking a positive spirit path . . .

What a gorgeous moment you captured......the silence permeates to here.

*sigh*

There's a longing...and an emptiness that silence doesn't touch....
