Quotes and Poems
WHY SILENCE
We wrap ourselves
In silence
So we might
More clearly hear
The whisper
Of our inner spirit
Asking us of what we do.
We listen not for words
But for the hints
That guide ourselves
Toward that which is
The best we might become.
Paul Weaver, 2019
Our life is love, and peace, and tenderness; and bearing one with another, and forgiving one another, and not laying accusations one against another, but praying one for another, and helping one another up with a tender hand.
Isaac Penington, Letters, 1667
