Listening to the Gifts of Silence

"Silence is the necessary space around things that allows them to develop and flourish without my pushing." - Richard Rohr. In this solo episode, I share a story that taught me how powerful retreating into silence is for learning how to listen.  Listen in ways that can be attentive, discerning, loving, and open, allowing things to unfold. I hope this encourages you to consider taking time to retreat and listen in your world. Thanks for listening! (quote from Center for Action & Contemplation meditations)
