How much we can learn in moments like these.
We can learn to have patience within ourselves, to better understand who and what we are.
We can learn to have patience with others, to better listen to what they say and how they feel.
We can learn to have patience with life, to better work with it, rather than against it.
How much we do need silence:
Silence for truth so that we may learn wisdom,
Silence for wisdom so that we may love,
Silence for love so that we may be just
Silence for justice so that we may live fully.
May we be more patient and more silent, so that we may proceed with courage and compassion.
