See how nature - trees, flowers, grass - grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence...we need silence to be able to touch souls.

Communication is key in many professions, including real estate.
However, silence is also important in our lives.
My husband has a couple of favorite tv sitcom series. They would be REBA and HOME IMPROVEMENT. Fortunately, since he plays them over and over, I like and enjoy them as well.
Note: Our son in law had the priveledge of meeting and speaking to Reba. And even if she doesn't remember, he got to tell her that his father-in-law loves both her music and her show.
There is an episode of Reba, where Reba's parents come to visit. And her father tells Van what is important in a relationship.
SILENCE
Among other things as well, but for today's purpose, will focus on the Silence!
So of course, google it. Right! We google everything we want to know more about, right!
si·lence - [sahy-luhns]
As a noun
1. absence of any sound or noise; stillness.
2. the state or fact of being silent; muteness.
As a verb
6. to put or bring to silence; still.
Silence is the relative or total lack of audible sound. By analogy, the word silence may also refer to any absence of communication, even in media other than speech.[1] Silence is also used as total communication, in reference to non verbal communication and spiritual connection. Silence is also referred to no sounds uttered by anybody in a room and or area. Silence is a very important factor in many cultural spectacles, as in rituals.

Today, in Beaverton Michigan, it's been snowing for hours. It's not yet 11:00 AM and I have already swept the snow off my car twice today. And I will be sweeping it off again before I can drive some more....
The snow is so heavy and wet, huge flakes are coming down as I type, I thought maybe it would roll for making a snowman. But when I tried a while ago, it's not quite ready!
Think I will turn on the radio and excercise a little.
The silence was nice and relaxing, but I guess I 'm ready for a little noise and movement now......
What a beautiful morning. What a beautiful day.
But do drive carefully if you're out on the roads today....
