What a beautiful sunny day we have here in South Wales today, I hope it is a sign of the hot summer that surely lies ahead. I cannot believe we are in May tomorrow, where does the time go.  It is so easy for us all to get caught up in the midst of our everyday life that we miss the simple things in life.

At every opportunity I take time out to go for a walk around the village where I live, it is a gentle calming place which has a sense of security and well being in its centre.  It often takes me much longer to walk the route I take as I meet so many people to chat to, smiley, happy, positive people who just enjoy the stillness of the place I call home.

This morning the birds are chattering away outside my office window as the sun streams in and lights up my desk, beyond their song lies silence and it is when we sit in the silence of our world that we can hear the most. 

The silent voice that only we can hear, our intution often carries the message we need to hear at the time we need it most.  If you have a burning question that you long to be answered then take a seat with silence and you will find that the answer to the question in your mind lies within your heart.

As I sat many years ago wondering what to do next I wrote 'Silence' and today I would like to share it with you:

Silence

Ssh!

Can you hear it?

 

There it is again

There

Near you

All around you

 

 

There it was

Didn't you hear it

For a moment

Just then

Ssh!

If you are quiet

And you listen

You will hear it

 

The sound of silence

 

You spoke

But

It is still there

Beyond your voice

In the distance
