….. (space)….  stillness, silence and space.  Even though I’m quite a social animal, I need these 3 things as much as the air I breathe; it’s how I recharge.   

One of my teachers said that a good test of how comfortable you are with yourself  is to sit by yourself in a room with no music, TV or books – just in silence – for an hour.   An hour would be a long time!  I’m not ready to try that one just yet.    I do know that I”m comfortable with the space between spoken words, the silence that lingers in conversation.  Those who are uncomfortable with silence feel insecure so they fill silence with incessant chatter.  I believe it’s to avoid getting in touch with feelings.

S…mart
P…eople
A…re
C…onsciously
E…xpanding in their SPACE

Yes, I just need to BE.  I’ll work up to that hour…
