There are times when we stop




.
.

We spend most of our time and energy in a kind of horizontal thinking. 
We move along the surface of things going from one quick base to another, 
often with a frenzy that wears us out.
We collect data, things, people, ideas, 'profound experiences',
 never penetrating any of them... 
.

But there are other times. 
There are times when we stop. We sit still. 
We lose ourselves in a pile of leaves or its memory. 
We listen and breezes from a whole other world begin to whisper.
