Day 8 - Silence
Especially these days, my ears are full to the tippy top with the chatter of the day..the work, the play, the chit chat, the stories, the meetings, and blessedly, the laughter of many, many children at the school at which I work. While each one of these sounds brings a different kind of abundance to my life, I find I'm craving silence more and more. I'm thankful to have a quiet corner in the house that I can retreat to for ten or fifteen minutes each day when I get home from work. It's equally as awesome that my kids have reached the age, that they can allow me (and each other) much needed space when we walk in the doorin the afternoon. We just seem to organically all need some head space before we can settle down into conversation with one another. Someone a long time ago knew exactly what was up.... Silence = Golden
