Sit in silence for 10 minutes every day.

I have been silent for most of today.....its peaceful ...try it instead of reading my blog today for this is what I learned.Today I had lunch with a monk who only speaks french and Thai . So we sat in silence and shared a meal .

"We sit silently and watch the world around us. This has taken a lifetime to learn. It seems only the old are able to sit next to one another and not say anything and still feel content. The young, brash and impatient, must always break the silence. It is a waste, for silence is pure. Silence is holy. It draws people together because only those who are comfortable with each other can sit without speaking. This is the great paradox." ― Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook
