The holiday season is upon us now, and many people will entertain family and friends in their homes. With much company comes much noise.
It’s always a joy to have company and fellowship one with another; however, as much as we enjoy it sometimes, we are ready to enjoy quietness. Sometimes I enjoy going to my office and doing nothing but enjoying the peace and quietness. Other times, I long for the noise of family and friends. I enjoy the times of both
In my times of quietness, I relax and think about how blessed I am to have a good family and many good friends. In spite of the problems of our nation and all that is going on in life around us, I agree with the singer, Louis Armstrong, It’s a Wonderful World.
I think sometimes in our life, quietness is a good therapy.
“I have often regretted my speech, never my silence.” — Publius Syrus.
There are times when most of us wish we could relive a time when we spoke out of turn or spoke to quickly without thinking.
I need wide spaces in my heart
Where Faith and I can go apart
And grow serene
.Life gets so choked by busy living
That love slips by unseen.
