listen=silentDoesn't that mean if you want to listen, you ought to stay silent first, in order to hear whatever you want to listen to? What do you think? ------------------ Dana IP: Logged |

Hello Passenger!!! And welcome to LindaLand!!! Yes, I agree. I think the druids are tying to tell us that by being SILENT we can often LISTEN and therefore hear and learn so much more than if we concentrate on saying and talking and speaking = making noise. Good to see you here in LexiLand! IP: Logged |
