Wordless or Quiet

 

You decide. Yes, it’s wordless Wednesday but perhaps we can call it ‘Wednesday’s Quiz Question’ instead. Where is your quiet space? Maybe it’s a stroll through a garden or park when no one else is there or contemplating a beautiful piece of art in a museum, or discovering that first apple blossom in the spring air. Should you need a little assistance this Wednesday morning, Norton Juster provides us with a few suggestions. 

“Have you ever heard the wonderful silence just before the dawn? Or the quiet and calm just as a storm ends? Or perhaps you know the silence when you haven't the answer to a question you've been asked, or the hush of a country road at night, or the expectant pause of a room full of people when someone is just about to speak, or, most beautiful of all, the moment after the door closes and you're alone in the whole house? Each one is different, you know, and all very beautiful if you listen carefully.” In all the noise of this busy Wednesday, find time for you and your quiet space.

It's the best splash of color I could find on this raining morning in the garden.
