BLESSED BE in the Sacred Silence, friends!
"Is there enough Silence for the Word to be heard?" BLESSINGS, my friends ...
MAY JOY BE WITH YOU, friends, as we move from the dark days of winter toward the spring-light! Even in joy, we know that:
BLESSINGS and ALL GOOD WISHES, dear friends! May each one of us radiate from the silence the gifts of wisdom, love, goodness, light and joy. May we recognize that in this, the busiest and noisiest of seasons, we are invited to ever deepening times of silence and solitude to ponder the Mystery of Love born anew in our hearts.
GREETINGS, friends ... May the blessings of inner peace, quiet joy, wonder and gratitude abound in each of your lives! And let us pray that these blessings radiate out to wherever they are most needed.
GREETINGS and BLESSINGS be yours, friends! As leave fall to the earth and surrender to the soil, may we, too, move our attention from the outer world to the Inner Being. As we move toward a season of stillness, may our path be straight, returning to the Source. Listen. The stillness calls to you.
May the blessings of inner peace and quiet joy be with each of you as we move toward the autumn season!
GREETINGS AND BLESSINGS be with you all! Summer: may each one of us find plenty of time and space for leisure and recreation.
BLESSINGS of joy and peace! May the Promise of this season find a home in your heart!
May the BLESSINGS of inner peace and quiet joy be with you! And may times of silence and solitude invite you to smell the roses ... to listen to the breeze-sound ... to really see the changing seasons. And, as you slow down long enough to quiet the inner voices, you may begin to sense the great beauty of all that has been given for you to share.

To those protesting he said one day, "Silence is not the absence of sound, but the absence of self. "
