QUIET your mind. QUIET is an
inside experience. QUIET is also an
outside experience. Libraries are
QUIET. Movie theaters, operas, plays,
and tennis matches are suppose to be QUIET.
Why is QUIET important? QUIET
allows you to concentrate and get in touch with you private thoughts. When you are always listening to the T.V.,
music, or background noise it is very hard to explore your thoughts and
feelings. Rain makes noise and it is
beautiful in its own way. Snow is really
magical and mystical and it is 100% quiet until you step on it and it makes
that wonderful crushing noise. If you
have ever been on a walk in a remote area while it is snowing everything is
QUIET unless an elk or deer is close by.
Listen intently, and if you hear a crushing of the snow look around and
you will probably see a wonderful animal eating from a tree and hearing the
hoofs crush the snow around it. QUIET
lends to the essence of the sacred.
Experiencing a time alone in perfect QUIET allows your mind to dump the
thoughts that fill it day and out and discover that QUIETNESS of just being
you. An interesting experiment is to have the family sit with only the light of
a candle for a period of twenty minutes (or five depending on age of the
children) experiencing QUIET. Listening
to what each person has to say after this experiment is a lot of fun. Set aside a time for QUEIT weekly.
