“The quieter you become, the more you can hear.” — Rumi.

I appreciate the silence of the flower; it never complains, whines, or speaks poorly of anyone.

by Jon Katz
love that Rumi quote, it is SO very true. Listening goes way beyond *hearing*…it goes into the soul. Some people (I have found) are unable to comprehend that. I spend most of my time alone…no radio no TV..no technical noise distractions…just listing to the birds, the wind, insects…and I *hear* more than most people can understand (but you do). I also have long ago grasped the saying *silence is deafening*…….. yes…we are speaking the same language!
