Silence is Golden

I have truly found a way to have an enjoyable Shabbos!! Silence!! I was told that years ago by very bright people. But, I didn't listen or I was too young to listen. I wanted companionship. I had this crazy idea that we would meld together and become friends. I worked very hard on that concept.

I read a book for my Meditation class called THE ART OF LOVE. I now understand that we were really not meant to be despite all my plugging away at it. I have also come to terms with my successes and failures. The biggest success of my life is work. Perhaps that is what I always wanted, but society said, marry and have children. I did. These were my biggest failures. But, after reading the book, I came to terms with it.

It was very easy to be quiet today. I really had nothing to say since I had worked all this out and I was able to enjoy everything about the day. I no longer feel depressed or upset.

I'm just proud of my successes.
