A woman rests on burlap bags and reinforced sacks, while surveying patches of harvested grain to be bundled in Bungamati, Nepal.
"Soon silence will have passed into legend. Man has turned his back on silence. Day after day he invents machines and devices that increase noise and distract humanity from the essence of life, contemplation, meditation." - Jean Arp.
Okay.
You keep topping yourself.
This is going on my inspiration wall.

Yes, it is a great quote and love the picture. As a Quaker, we are taught to sit in silence. Last week we went to a wedding that had both silence from the Quaker bride and cathedral music from the Episcopalian groom. It was interesting to see the difference.

Why only this evening we had a meditation session hosted by a wonderful gal at the spa. A small group of us gathered to learn new breathing techniques, and how to *still* our minds. Gently. We all loved it. Silence is indeed golden.
