In The Silence



In the Silence

"Listen to the rhythm of your own silence….

As we journey once more toward the darkness of winter we are called back inside, into the quiet stillness of our inner life. Here we are meant to rest, to listen, to regenerate and deepen our connection with the silence from which all life springs. From this conversation with the silence, we emerge fresh, a birth." Lee Bryant

Silence is the womb of all creation


This lovely 'In the Silence' poster sent to me by my sister-in-law, Lee Bryant, served as my meditation focus for today. From the simplicity of the 'In The Silence' title to the pictures to the 'listen to the rhythm of your own silence' my mind flowed into the silence.

Lee Bryant~one of the two artists in the exhibit~ is my sister-in-law, as well as the sister of my heart. Living on San Juan Island in Washington, Lee creates art that takes me into the silence ~ and leaves me calm, serene and refreshed.

If you'd like to enjoy a healing journey this winter, take a trip to Friday Harbor on San Juan Island. Stay at a bed and breakfast. Go to the Saturday Market. Visit the Lavendera Day Spa to view the gallery showing of 'In The Silence' November 7th through January 1st with Paintings by Cynthia  Church and Lee Bryant.


Silence Is

God's poet is silence! ~Joaquin Miller

Silence is the universal refuge, the sequel to all dull discourses and all foolish acts, a balm to our every chagrin, as welcome after satiety as after disappointment.  ~Henry David Thoreau

In the attitude of silence the soul finds the path in a clearer light, and what is elusive and deceptive resolves itself into crystal clearness.  Our life is a long and arduous quest after Truth.  ~Mahatma Gandhi


Silence is a source of great strength.  ~Lao Tzu
