May you grow still enough to hear the small noises earth makes in preparing for the long sleep of winter, so that you yourself may grow calm and grounded deep with-in.

May you grow still enough to hear the stir of a single snowflake in the air, so that your inner silence may turn into hushed expectation. ~Brother David Steindl-Rast
