Un_Just
In an unjust, difficult world, our soul is often in pain and weeping. But, the silence...the silent place, the still center, is one I know that I neglect. Like white light, this silence of the soul contains everything... , Yet it transfers the warring jumble of noise and color into a peaceful blankness. Call it acceptance or surrender. The stillness of the spirit is the stillness of communion with truth beyond change. It is silent because it dosen't belong to the world of the senses. Spiritual knowledge that's ancient, if we have that knowledge.... let ourselves listen to it, and it will nourish us, if we permit. For some, it is a great effort just to learn to listen to the noise of our souls. I have spent years blotting out joy with addictions, other drugs, or rationalizations. I feel I have made enourmous progress when I learned to hear my own soul's noise. ................ But be assured, the soul's great silence can be achieved. It's just another damn choice.

It is wonderful that you are tuning into your inner music.
To thine own self be true. Find the truths to our own silence. I am trying to learn to once again listen to that stillness of silence. I seem to have to knock out those little imps that like to circle in my brain and cause confusion. You my friend are helping to still those imps.
Be still and know that I am.
I know that place indeed, Mr. Meddle.
I don\'t like the silence...then I have to THINK! :)jk........I value the times when I can find silence in my life, for there my spirit finds rest and my mind finds peace. It\'s just not that often that I achieve the silence!
Love this! So good to really listen to what we are giving ourselves. You have a beautiful soul, so continue to listen to it and embrace even the silence. Hugs!
I hear so many things in the silence, and I know that you know those well. I am very happy to hear you have found this place of self awareness, as some kind of peace follows, and acceptance of all this is or will be. ((((((Meddle)))))
