The Healing Properties of Silence

In my experience, silence has been this and more. It is a space where my thoughts meet my fear and my fears meet my happiness and my gratefulness rejoices and my emotions catch up with my logic and my heartbeat slows down. It is as much of a physical process as an emotional one. Thus, allowing slivers of peace to fill into the other spaces. There within those slivers of peace I gain my humbleness. A humbleness of recognition that a power greater than myself remains in control.

What Happened to 2020?

So, what did happen to 2020 exactly? Noting. I think it is right here, right now. Perhaps our “idea” of 2020 did not happen. We have the tendency to project our expectations onto things and how they should be, what they should look like. When it doesn’t happen, we are taken aback. We have had our moment of being taken aback. Now it is time to readjust accordingly.
