Respect for slience

I pity people who have not
had the opportunity to be...
alone... by themselves... with
themselves... to discover themselves.
For you are too bound up...
with everyday trivia to really
sink in deep into the subject...
The presence of another person
shuts out the world... but
locks you into their world
with them... Oh, and it's
so beautiful to be alone...
There are times when we
all need someone else but
we also need our private...
...discover me... times.  There
are times when I want no...
one, absolutely no one...with
me... to be able to drink in the
countryside or the seashore
and realize the immensity of
it all and to feel a part of
the whole cycle of life... to go
beyond the small things and
to feel incorporated into...
the universe... but sometimes,
if you are the right people,
you can be alone together...
each locked into your own
thoughts and...yet...sharing
that intimacy of being...
with each other... but few
people have learned that
speciality of... respect for silence.
