Silence and Absence

silence filling the space between two glowing souls

 Silence

“One of the tasks of true friendship is to listen compassionately and creatively to the hidden silences. Often secrets are not revealed in words, they lie concealed in the silence between the words or in the depth of what is unsayable between two people.” ~ John O’Donohue





  Absence

A silent soul in  A fire with passion

"Absence is to Love, what Wind is to Fire.
It extinguishes the small, yet rekindles the great" ~ Comte De Bussy
