I saw something similar to the above image recently and thought it was interesting and definitely something I have never noticed before about the two words. I find value in both speaking and listening and think the two can be done simultaneously, but sometimes a great treasure does come from finding a certain silence and I am on board with having more of that in my life. Hoping for a wonderful 2017!

The Gold
Maybe it’s not meant to be,
Not this time around.
Maybe I should just sit back, for once
And listen to the sound:
A singing, ringing, live music in my ear.
Let go of trying to control,
And say goodbye to fear.
What’s meant to happen will happen,
As I’ve oft been told.
No need for seeking rainbows —
Each moment holds the gold.
