listen is the active form of silent-
each is the other and in being silent we can listen –
to others, to ourselves, to the whispers of the future that is leading us to it and the past to which we remain in until we allow ourselves to be silent and listen to our present, which will present our future.
as we conduct, we must listen & honor the necessary pauses in the symphony that is our life. Silent moments are still active. Passive motion is rest and in rest is the restoration needed to play the next verse.
silent … listen
