silence
Mary Martin and
silence
Saying the most with the least
my sincerest apologies for the silence. Rather think of my silence as listening really well

A friend sent me this note after a delayed reply to my message. I'd love a world where we drop the often (self) imposed urge to measure the quality of our contribution to relationships based on speed.
The benefits of silence and solitude

A wise old owl lived in an oak,
The more he saw the less he spoke,
The less he spoke, the more he heard,
Why aren’t we all like that old bird?
