SILENCE

There is an inner sense which points one to the silence of being and awareness.

As an example, the ranch hand believes that God can not be best be found in noise and restlessness. On the contrary, our Savior is the friend of silence.

Silence can be a lucid and elegant drama, or it can be a balm that soothes the nerve that is vibrating ad infinitum.

We find in Ecclesiastes 3:7, "there is a time to speak and a time to be silent".

The ole fat boy learned long ago that which follows:

* Be still, and be quiet, and nature will speak to one as though there is no other

* Folks like to talk, and they like someone to listen; ya can be consider "wise", just by keeping your trap shut,

* Become one with silence, it is a blessed blanket of comfort

* We seldom put our proverbial "foot in mouth" when the pie-trap is shut

Nuthin' heavy here, just more ramblin' from yur country scribe?
