Becoming still

In the stillness of the quiet, if we listen,

we can hear the whisper of the heart

giving strength to weakness,

courage to fear,

hope to despair.

Howard Thurman, American Author, pastor and civil rights leader

Listen to your heart, a true form of listening that is often overlooked or forgotten. Thanks Karl for sharing,

Beautiful, thank you.
