Love this poem —it speaks volumes and explains my vision and usage of silence through the years. It says so much more than words and goes the distance to set a mood …

Thank you!

Silence can sometimes be the loudest noise of all. Great poem.

Brenda: thank you for expressing so succinctly exactly what I now have decided to do.

No response is a response, and it chooses dignity and calm over squabbling with people who don’t care about your hurt and your brave heart now and then and always….and that is ok, in my humble opinion.

Little grandson here yesterday brightened me up with his beautiful take on life and we enjoyed running outside and playing with Lego and just having precious now moments together.

Kindest regards to you for the very best in life

You are most welcome Carol. And thank you for seeing that Silence can be a very beautiful thing. I applied this in my life when I realised that my voice was not heard and it caused more issues. Now that silence is balm for my soul. Namaste, beautiful lady.
