"Silence is loaded with answers."
~Unknown
This unexpected bit of wisdom
showed up on my doorstep this
early a.m. and set me a ponder . . .
I've been a bit of a chatty Patty
my entire life. I can remember
my parents taking the odd drive
and daddy would tell me that I
needed to be silent for half an
hour. Obviously, I obeyed, but
it nigh onto killed me.
I still enjoy . . . but perhaps,
conversing more than talking.
And, I'm daring to think I'm
even beginning to shut up from
time to time. Maybe someone
else would like to get a word
in edgewise?!
I find I actually like listening
to others prattle. Maybe I learn
something or maybe I don't. Still,
it's interesting! I get a kick out of
sussing out what things different
people like to talk about.
There are weather only peeps.
Some love to gossip. Others
offer the profound. These are my
faves. Again, if I listen, I learn.
I swear, I'm going to listen up . . .
Silence is indeed a gift! I might
even learn something!
