I am a collector of words

Words feed me, free me, comfort, uplift and heal me. I've been saving my favorites in books, handwritten over the years and thought that perhaps in sharing them, not only am I preserving them for myself, but perhaps others may also find healing in them as I have.

Silence

"Why not simply stay quiet?  Let others think you are dumb.   Inside yourself you will know the joy of Tao's mysteries.   If you meet someone who can profit from your experience, you should share, but if you are a wanderer in a crowd of strangers, it is wisdom to be silent."  Deng Ming-Dao
