    One of my oldest friends told me about one of her fondest memories in life. I brought her to the beach one night. We talked for a bit and then we sat there in silence for a long while., doing nothing but feeling the salty breeze and sand between our toes, hearing the crash of the waves, and noticing the moment. She said I gave her a profound gift, just when she needed it. She told me this at least twenty five years after the fact, and I new exactly what night she meant.

    Enjoy the silence.
