In this rush-rush contemporary world, it can be hard to find silence. And with busy-busy schedules it can be even more difficult to find moments of quiet peace.

Yet, moments of peace are critical to spiritual listening and growth.

They not only allow us to find sweet solace and comfort, they possess a power of themselves that brings depth and richness to our life and to those around us that feel the touch of the calm we find within.

See how nature – trees, flowers, grass – grows in silence;
See the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence…
We need silence to be able to touch souls.

~ Mother Teresa
