Sometimes I have a need to be vocal. Speaking up, sharing new thoughts and ideas. A time to be heard and witnessed. My words are a needed blessing and gift to the ears of weary, soul-hungry interweb weavers in the world. Sometimes, I have a need to go inward and seek silence. Clearing away noise and busy-ness to get in touch with my highest good A time of spending days in reflection, meditation and prayer. A time to heal and renew. My silence is a needed blessing and a gift to my weary soul-hungry self. Part of finding Goddess within myself is making space for her to speak to me. But the space must be there for me to listen to her voice. A mini-retreat for spiritual maintenance. It's not necessarily where I go, but that I'm in divine quiet. So I made space for silence. Invited her to tea. Cut her a slice of cake. Lowered my voice here and on twitter. I spent several hours during the day not speaking. Just listening to the sounds around me. Do you know what I heard? The birds singing morning praises The gurgling, bubbling rush of running water The crackling, snapping pops of fire's vibrant dance The more quiet I got, the more I could hear Subtle sounds of the quickening pulse of the earth coming into bloom The bustling industry of trees converting poisonous gas to invisible nourishment for my lungs. The delicate swallow of Mama Gaia drinking in life giving rains The tranquil whirl of my chakras aligning with each other My heart beating in time with these ethereal rhythms being sung all around me. And now I've returned
My Goddess self restored with the breath of new life New thoughts and ideas ready to be poured out New creations gestating and taking form. My heart filled with gratitude for silence. So dear luminous being When will you invite divine quiet into your life?
