"it is a great thing to know the season for speech and the season for silence..."

i find myself upon a crossroad

to the left are words unsaid

unnecessary, futile

seemingly important only to me,

a voice that longs to speak,

express, to be understood

to the right is silence

quiet, peaceful, calm,

a voice which begs to be still

and rest in knowing

that a thousand words can be spoken

in a moment of quiescence

in the wind a gentle voice whispers

"stay to the right"

and i follow

understanding that

for every time there is a season

and this is my time

to be still

listening, learning, and leaning on faith...

-t.
