Silence is Golden

There is no reason to yell.

"Silence is the element in which great things fashion themselves together; that at length they may emerge, full-formed and majestic, into the daylight of Life, which they are thenceforth to rule.” - Thomas Carlyle, English Poet

I had intended to write a longer article today on screaming from the sidelines and on the state of modern-day youth sports. However, we have known for ages the value of silence.

"Silence is the sleep that nourishes wisdom." - Francis Bacon

We need only remind ourselves of our best selves.

“There is a time for silence. A time to let go and allow people to hurl themselves into their own destiny.” – Octavia Butler

Thus, no long article today.

"There are times when silence is golden, and one of those times is at hand." - Horatio Alger

Be well.
