Words

I'm covered in words. More now than ever before. They are everywhere. I can hardly be still. I can hardly remember how to quiet my heart. I can barely hear silence calling. Can you hear her? For me, anymore, it's only when I close my eyes. Yet silence is more than sleep. Silence is invigorating, fulfilling, and peaceful.

Listen, she is calling.
Listen in the silent places. Listen to the moment. Listen to the language that has no words.

It's all around us.
It's in us.
It's now.

Silence is calling. Unplug and recharge. Life is more than words. Life is being. I mustn't let my desire to chase after and capture the multitude of words that bombard our society cause me to miss the moment.

I must stop.
I must listen.
I must live.

A cacophony of meaningless words will fill the quiet space if I allow them to. If I allow the distraction, I will miss the moment. I will miss the strength the silent presence of peace brings.

Shhh... quiet your heart and listen to the silence with me...
