Silent Echoes
I'm just an old fool
who cared enough to listen
to others that don't...

We could all stand to be more like the “old fool; who cared enough to listen.” More listening, more compassion, more hope for each others… even, and maybe especially those with whom we disagree.

Yes.. I'm one of those fools. Beautiful Crickets. Amazing if u think about it.

Well then - "Happy Birthday LadyAnn!"
I don't care for the crickets...very annoying like the background noise that is constantly playing in my head.
However, it is refreshing when someone cares to listen these days!

Stillness and focus are their own artforms as coffee mysts rise and expand to transparencies
Why I can't remember when I wasn't. Thanks for reminding me!
