Those who have the humility of a child

Childhood is the foundation stone upon which stands the whole life structure.The seed sown in childhood blossoms into the tree of life.

Those who have the humility of a child may find again the key to reverence for, and kinship with, all of life.

There is no cost to have the Friends of Silence monthly letter sent to you each month.

For the past 35 years, a small band of dedicated friends have poured their hearts and love into Friends of Silence.

Each month we send out the newsletter in print and email to a growing community of over 10,000 people.

The monthly newsletter of contemplative quotes remains free and is made possible by your generosity and support.

If our work brings you any hope and a sense of belonging, then please consider supporting our labor of love with a donation.

And if you’ve already given, from the bottom of our hearts: THANK YOU.

Call the world if you please, "The Vale of Soul Making." Then you will find out the use of the world.
