In the silence

Sometimes silence says more than a thousand words

Sometimes when tempted to speak

Is it perhaps better

Not to

Better to remain silent?

These things we say

Others will make of what they will

And worlds of experience

Live in places words cannot ever fully reach

And yet in this world

We struggle to give expression to what we feel inside

What we have come to understand in our heart and soul is true

For us

Some of it resonates

Some of it falls on deaf ears

Some words light a fire under us

While others leave us cold

But always when sharing and reading

It pays to remember

These words or thought or images are only someone’s point of view

Informed by their experience

And what meaning or reason they have made of it

And so its sage advice

For I am no prophet

When you read what I post here

Take what resonates and leave the rest

For I am in the end

Just another falliable human

Struggling to live and love and grow

And make sense of a world of deep experience

Day by day

And all my opionions are only that

Formed in the crucible of my own research and experience

And I am also aware

How much in life is also a mystery

One that cannot be fully communicated

In words or by reason

But only truly known

Deep within the silence of my body heart and soul

And it may not be right or true for you

(Take what you like – or resonates – and leave the rest.)
