GOD IS THE MIRROR OF SILENCE
IN WHICH ALL CREATION IS REFLECTED.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Of Note: Ah, silence: if there were only more of it, we think. Hermits had it easy that way. Sitting in some cave with no company but the bats, they had nothing else to do but contact God. But our challenge in modern society is to connect with God holding down a job, shuttling a couple of kids around to various activities and keeping a marriage intact throughout it all. Or fill-in-the-blank. We have many, many stories. It's part of the evolutionary process to figure it out. It stretches the Mind. And in that cave of Mind silence will again be heard.
Today's Weather Report: This lovely fall scene on the Namekagon River has now been superceded by a more winter look--bare branches and overcast skies. An eery silence pervades since the birds have moved farther south. Snow showers, which began this morning, are expected to continue throughout the day. The drip, drip, drip from the roof onto the ground creates the cadence of the day.
