My love is like the grasses

My love
is like the grasses
hidden in the deep mountain:
though its abundance increases,
nobody knows.

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.

With True Love, there is always a childlike sense of wonder and an appreciation for the Mystery of life that is beyond our human comprehension.
