The Value of Silence

I know this blog is about music and the way it makes us feel but after this week, I just needed some silence. This morning, I've had about an hour without the phone ringing, without the dog barking, no conversations to be had: just time to sit and think. How powerful is that? I feel enabled and ready to tackle the day, all because I had peace and quiet. This will eventually end and the music will be calling to me later on but I would be leaving you bereft without mentioning the value of silence. I hope you can take a few minutes and enjoy the quiet with me today.
