Thursday Thoughts...

"Silence is something more than just a pause; it is that enchanted place where space is cleared and time is stayed and the horizon itself expands".

Pico Ayer 

Oh yes, here we are again with the idea of silence and quiet, and solitude. 


Pico Ayer has helped me think about silence in different ways; and to find different ways to accommodate it in my life. To explore what I think I mean when I use the word, and how it can be applied to parts of my life. 


I love this description of silence as an enchanted place where space and time are set aside and the horizon itself expands...it feels like silence enables growth and increase; that silence enables us to see more and to see further, that silence is a huge enabler. 
I think it is.


And deserts. Arizona 2013 - that horizon expanding in the silence...
